WAP06 – Original Acrylic Painting of the Uncoditional Surrender Statue
 
Unconditional Surrender – Original Acrylic Painting by Jolanta Andraka Milligan

Original Canvas Painting | Size: 16"x20"x0.75"
 
This heartfelt painting was inspired by one of the most iconic moments in American history—the passionate kiss between a sailor and a nurse, captured at the end of World War II. The statue Unconditional Surrender, located in Sarasota, Florida, stands as a tribute to that joyful, emotional moment.
 
Living in Sarasota, artist Jolanta Andraka Milligan was deeply moved by the story behind the statue—a symbol of hope, love, and relief at the close of a long and difficult war. Her interpretation of the scene is rendered in warm, soft pastel tones, evoking a sense of tenderness and quiet celebration.
 
This painting is more than a depiction—it is a tribute. A reflection of history, emotion, and the timeless human spirit. It is a very special piece, perfect for those who appreciate meaningful art with a beautiful story at its heart.
 
The artwork can be displayed as-is or tastefully framed to match your home’s interior.
Signed by the artist on the back.
