Title: Oil painting People looking at the flow of river Yuriy Suprunchuk Description: NoAAA5523 The Oil painting on Cardboard titled "People looking at the flow of river" presents a moment of quiet reflection captured along the edge of a rural river, where humanity and nature merge in a delicate and harmonious scene. The viewer is immediately drawn into the composition by the winding wooden pier, its planks painted with bold strokes of earthy browns and pinkish tones, leading directly into the water. The pier's zigzagging form creates a strong visual rhythm, guiding the eye from the shore into the heart of the painting where three figures stand at its end, gazing at the flowing water. The figures, though not rendered with detailed precision, are expressive in their gestures and postures. Dressed in simple rural attire, they lean slightly forward, as though captivated by the movement of the river beneath them. Their presence embodies the human instinct to pause, observe, and contemplate the natural world. The artist intentionally leaves their features indistinct, allowing them to serve as symbols for universal human curiosity and introspection rather than as specific individuals. The water, painted in layered shades of blue, grey, and soft violet, dominates the foreground. Its surface reflects both sky and land, shimmering with brushstrokes that convey the ever-shifting play of light on moving currents. The artist's use of lighter tones near the pier and darker, more subdued hues toward the distance creates a sense of depth and movement, as though the river is both a mirror of the heavens and a restless force of nature carrying time forward. Small ripples and dashes of white suggest flow and continuity, reinforcing the theme of life's constant motion. On the opposite bank, a house with a red roof sits nestled on a gentle slope, surrounded by patches of green and framed by trees. Its inclusion in the composition offers both a sense of place and stability, contrasting with the impermanence and fluidity of the water. The path leading to the house winds up the hill, echoing the zigzag of the pier below and tying together the elements of human dwelling, labor, and daily existence. The structure, humble yet vibrant, becomes a symbol of home-anchored in the landscape yet always looking toward the life-giving river.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "People looking at the flow of river"* ARTISTS: Yuriy Suprunchuk* SIZE: 30x40 cm/11.81x15.74 inches'* MEDIUM: oil, cardboard* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: we tried to convey the maximum information with the help of photos about this product About the artist: Zhitomir artist Suprunchuk Yuri Sergeevich Born on April 11, 1961, in the city of Zhitomir.
