Soul in Gold – Spiritual Animal Art with Hindu Inspiration

Original paintings by Maurice Figué blending sacred animals, golden symbolism, and Eastern energy into soulful, powerful works of art.

Soul in Gold

A collection by Maurice Figué

"Soul in Gold" is a sacred series of paintings by Maurice Figué, created with acrylic, natural pigments, and hand-applied 24K gold leaf. In this collection, majestic animals emerge from deep shadows — not just as visual subjects, but as spiritual archetypes embodying divine energy, inner strength, and sacred presence.

Each piece is a meditation on silence, power, and elegance. The gold isn’t merely decorative — it’s symbolic of the eternal, the untouchable, the soul within.

Mauricio works alongside his wife, Angie Figué, also an accomplished artist and the creator of The Jungle Collection, a joyful and imaginative series inspired by their 5-year-old son, Benjamín. Together, they form a family of artists — painting not just with brushes, but with shared love, stories, and vision.

"Soul in Gold" carries the quiet strength of the sacred animal and the spiritual beauty of simplicity. It speaks to collectors who honor art not just for what it shows — but for what it awakens.

Perfect for contemplative homes, sacred interiors, and those who seek meaning through visual poetry.

Maurice Figué

Animals have always held a special place in my heart — ever since childhood, they were my imaginary companions and favorite subjects. I’ve always felt a deep emotional connection to their energy, freedom, and silent wisdom.

Years later, working with people from India, I was introduced to a rich and spiritual artistic world that truly inspired me. The symbolism, color, and sacred storytelling in Indian art awakened something profound within me.

From that fusion was born “Soul in Gold” — a series that blends my lifelong love for animals with the beauty and soul of Hindu-inspired art. Each piece is a reflection of spirit, emotion, and the unseen energy that connects us all.
