Title: Oil painting Old residential town Oleksiy Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5867The Oil painting Canvas titled "Old residential town" offers a vivid, textured glimpse into a historic settlement, where narrow stone-paved streets, modest houses, and distant towers combine to form a rich visual narrative of tradition and community. Executed with bold strokes and thick impasto layers, the artwork captures not only the architectural charm of the old town but also the energy and warmth of its daily life. The viewer is immediately drawn into a world where the passage of time has left marks on the buildings and pathways, yet the spirit of the place remains alive through its people and atmosphere. The composition is centered around a winding cobblestone street that runs diagonally across the canvas, guiding the eye from the foreground to the clustered rooftops and minarets in the distance. The street, painted with pale tones of beige, pink, and soft gray, carries the marks of history, its uneven stones suggesting centuries of footsteps, carts, and gatherings. The textured brushwork makes the path feel tactile, as though one could almost feel the roughness of the stones underfoot. On either side of this path, houses with red-tiled roofs and whitewashed walls anchor the scene. The artist renders these dwellings in bold, simplified forms, highlighting their rustic charm and weathered presence. The thick roofs, painted in deep oranges and reds, contrast beautifully with the cooler tones of the walls, while black windows punctuate the facades like silent eyes observing the life of the street. Some of the buildings lean slightly or show uneven lines, a choice that enhances the sense of authenticity, reminding the viewer that this is not a place of perfection but of lived history. In the background, the silhouettes of tall, slender minarets rise elegantly above the rooftops, painted in whites and accented with touches of red and green. These spires evoke a sense of cultural heritage and spirituality, situating the town within a specific geographic and historical context. Their presence adds depth to the composition, while also symbolizing continuity between past and present.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Old residential town"* 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.
