Title: Oil painting Military camp Serhiy Gnoyovy Description: ?AAA5876The Oil painting Canvas titled "Military camp" presents a vivid and monumental depiction of life within a transient settlement shaped by the urgency of war and the weight of duty. The artist has carefully orchestrated a complex composition that combines figures, landscape, and objects into a dynamic tableau where the personal meets the collective, and the ordinary intersects with the extraordinary circumstances of military mobilization. In the foreground, a group of figures dominates the scene, each charged with symbolic weight. On the left, bundles of tools?shovels neatly stacked in rows?suggest preparation, labor, and the immense effort required to sustain not only battle but the logistics of survival in a temporary encampment. These tools serve as silent witnesses to the toil of common soldiers and laborers, essential for building fortifications, shelters, and maintaining the infrastructure of war. The presence of these objects underlines the unglamorous yet vital role of work behind the frontlines. The figures at the center, two men standing upright, command attention. One wears a soldier?s uniform, complete with boots and cap, and rests his arm across his waist with a gesture of readiness. Beside him, a civilian man in a white shirt carries a large saw and a bright orange container, a combination of items symbolizing both construction and sustenance. Their stance is firm, as though contemplating the camp before them, yet they also embody a meeting of military and civilian life, two worlds temporarily fused by the necessities of war. Their presence speaks to resilience and adaptability, qualities demanded by such historical moments. To the right, a woman in a blue headscarf and traditional dress clutches a bundle in her arms. Her face, turned outward, is etched with concern and stoicism, reflecting the emotional toll of displacement and separation. She represents the human cost of conflict, the wives, mothers, and daughters caught in the vast machinery of war, yet forced to carry on with dignity and strength. Around her feet lie various bags and suitcases, evoking both the impermanence of the camp and the heavy burden of migration, where lives are carried in bundles from one uncertain place to another.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Military camp"* ARTISTS: Serhiy Mykolayovych* SIZE: 88x112.5 cm/34.64x44.29 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: Gnoyovy Serhiy Mykolayovych (05. 10. 1954, village of Rybtsi, Poltava district, Poltava region - 23. 09. 2019, Poltava) - painter and graphic artist.
