Title: Oil painting Melancholic romance of autumn Yuriy Suprunchuk Description: No.AAA5763The Oil painting Cardboard titled "Melancholic romance of autumn" conveys a delicate balance between the beauty of seasonal change and the quiet emotional resonance that autumn evokes in the human spirit. The composition invites the viewer into a narrow street framed by tall, elegant buildings whose facades glow with warm ochres, muted reds, and soft browns. Their architecture suggests an old European town, where every window, balcony, and iron gate whispers stories of past decades. The street itself is shadowed and reflective, as if damp from recent rain, creating shimmering surfaces that capture both the fading light of the sky and the vibrant hues of fallen leaves. At the heart of the composition stands a row of tall trees, their branches reaching upward, almost bare yet clinging to the last remnants of green, yellow, and amber leaves. The artist has rendered the foliage with loose, expressive strokes, allowing the leaves to appear as if they are drifting gently downward, caught in the breeze. This visual detail heightens the sense of impermanence and quiet melancholy, reminding the viewer that autumn is not only a season of beauty but also of transition and letting go. Beneath the trees, two small figures emerge as subtle focal points. One carries an umbrella, painted in pale tones that contrast gently with the darker surroundings, while another figure moves ahead into the street’s vanishing perspective. Their inclusion infuses the painting with narrative, suggesting the intimacy of a walk taken on a cool autumn afternoon. These figures are not painted with detail but with suggestive brushstrokes, emphasizing their role as part of the atmosphere rather than as individuals. They evoke themes of companionship, solitude, and reflection, perfectly in harmony with the painting’s title. The sky above is rendered in shades of luminous blue with hints of turquoise breaking through the architectural silhouettes, a reminder of clear air after rain. Against this backdrop, the warm earth tones of the buildings and the dark silhouettes of the trees stand out all the more vividly. The artist has carefully balanced cool and warm tones, weaving them together in a way that reflects both the crispness of autumn air and the lingering warmth of the season’s light. The play of color not only enriches the composition but also deepens the emotional resonance, creating a dialogue between the external world and internal sentiment.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Melancholic romance of autumn"* ARTIST: Yuriy Suprunchuk* SIZE: 40x30 cm/15.74x11.81 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.
