Title: Oil painting Streets of Venice Yuriy Suprunchuk Description: NoAAA4947 The oil painting on cardboard titled "Streets of Venice" captures the warmth, charm, and timeless atmosphere of one of the world's most iconic cities. The artist's expressive brushwork, nuanced palette, and inviting composition transport the viewer into a quiet corner of Venice where canals replace streets and the soul of the city lingers in the play of light and water. Dominating the scene is a cluster of warm-toned, aged buildings that line the canal with distinct Venetian character. The facades, painted in shades of ochre, terra cotta, dusty rose, and faded ivory, exhibit a history worn beautifully. Their windows are irregular and lively-some open, some shuttered-suggesting lives lived within. The sunlight bathes the walls with a golden glow, casting subtle shadows and accentuating textures of timeworn plaster and sun-bleached bricks. The buildings are tall and elegant, yet grounded, with sloping rooftops and balconies that hint at daily rhythms: laundry hung to dry, pots of herbs, or a cat lazily observing the canal below. At the heart of the composition is a softly angled structure with an arched doorway and green shutters, creating a gentle focal point. It leans slightly, as if nodding to its neighbors, a characteristic so emblematic of Venetian architecture. Rooftop antennas and delicate spires poke into the cloudless blue sky, giving a sense of vertical life, of stories layered above and below the eye level. Below, the canal glistens in deep olive green and sapphire hues, rippling with reflections of the sunlit facades. Two small moored boats float gently in the foreground-one painted in a bold crimson and the other in maritime blue, both with white accents. Their delicate ropes, softly curved masts, and subtle reflections in the water lend an air of calm and gentle motion to the scene. The boats act as visual anchors, linking the architecture to the water in a seamless blend of form and function. Along the quay, small figures add narrative and scale. A pedestrian dressed in dark clothing walks purposefully past the arched doorway. Nearby, a couple of people converse or observe the activity along the waterfront. These miniature glimpses of life add authenticity and a layer of lived-in warmth to The painting without dominating the quiet elegance of the composition. The color palette, though rooted in earthy Mediterranean tones, is invigorated by the artist's confident use of light.
