Valentine paintings that bloom forever
Can’t find the words?
Whether it’s a partner, family member or friend, when it comes to telling our loved-ones how we feel, words can sometimes fall short. And lovely though they are, chocolates get eaten and live flowers wilt. For an enduring reminder of what they mean to us, a picture speaks a thousand words.
In this latest blog post we bring you a selection of original paintings we think would make wonderful Valentine’s Day gifts for that special someone, and as precious and unique as the person you love, each and every piece is one-of-a-kind.
Collection or delivery before Valentine’s Day
What’s more, there’s still time for local collection or delivery before February 14th.
It’s traditional on special occasions to give our loved-ones flowers, and you’ll find these in abundance in the Allura Art Collection. But in addition to floral subject-matter, we’ve picked out some still-lifes and landscapes which encapsulate the passion and romance of St. Valentine’s Day.
In fair Verona, where we lay our scene…
In his twilight rooftop vista Verona Dusk, Maltese painter Andrew Borg depicts the illuminated and meandering streets of the northern-Italian town of Verona. Shakespeare’s chosen setting for Romeo and Juliet, ‘Fair Verona’ will forever be known as the beguiling backdrop for the most celebrated and tragic love-story in the history of theatre.
As the sun sets and the street lights come on, in Mgarr Sunset Maltese painter Christine Porter Lofaro captures the peace and serenity of the village of Mgarr as it transitions from day into night.
Delimara After Sunset by British-Maltese artist Andrew Smith was painted on location on Malta’s south-east coast near the fishing village of Marsaxlokk. In the medium of gouache and using the alla prima painting technique, the artist captures the moment a spectacular sunset descends over the picturesque Delimara Bay.
Marsalforn Valley, Gozo is a fiery landscape dominated by the artist’s favourite colour - red.
In his signature style, Gozitan painter Christopher Saliba applies vivid colours to textured canvas to convey the sweltering heat of the Mediterranean sun as it gently bakes the landscape.

Besides the flowers and landscapes available in the Allura Art collection, many other paintings fit the Valentine theme. Here are a few…
