Title: Oil painting A lonely house in a field Oleksiy Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5820The Oil painting Canvas titled "A lonely house in a field" draws the viewer into a quiet and atmospheric rural landscape where simplicity and solitude create an unforgettable sense of presence. Executed with expressive brushstrokes and rich, layered textures, the work captures not only the visual details of a countryside scene but also its mood, rhythm, and emotional resonance. At its heart lies a solitary farmhouse, modest and fragile in appearance, yet grounded within the surrounding expanse of nature. In the foreground, the field unfolds in a vibrant mosaic of earthy browns, golden ochres, and fresh greens. The brushstrokes are vigorous and unrestrained, suggesting the raw vitality of land that has been plowed, sown, or perhaps simply left to flourish in its natural state. A lone white cow grazes calmly in this expanse, its form illuminated by subtle strokes of white and cream. The animal’s presence adds a sense of life and continuity, emphasizing the bond between rural existence and the land itself. Its posture suggests calm absorption, a moment of quiet sustenance that mirrors the overall atmosphere of the painting. The house, set further back, becomes the focal point of the composition. Painted with muted tones of rose, beige, and soft ochre, it carries a sense of warmth despite its solitary position. The rough, textured rendering of its walls and roof conveys the wear of time, suggesting resilience and modesty rather than grandeur. Surrounded by a simple wooden fence, the dwelling appears both protected and isolated, standing as a symbol of human presence amidst vast, untamed nature. Behind the house, a dense wall of trees rises dramatically, their dark greens and deep browns interwoven with shadowy tones. The impasto technique gives their foliage a tactile presence, emphasizing their weight and density. They form a natural backdrop that shelters the house, yet also heightens its solitude, as though the dwelling is embraced but also hidden from the wider world. The contrast between the brightness of the foreground and the shadowy depth of these trees creates a powerful visual tension, underscoring the theme of isolation within protection.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "A lonely house in a field"* ARTIST: Oleksiy Ivanyuk* SIZE: 15x20 cm/5.90x7.87 inches'* MEDIUM: oil, canvas* 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: Born March 13, 1954, in the city of Piryatin, Poltava region.
