Title: Oil painting Winter tear Anatoly Varvarov Description: No.Varv 217The oil painting "Winter tear" eloquently captures a solitary moment where winter's cold grip is on the cusp of relenting to the thaw. The canvas is dominated by a muted palette of grays and whites, portraying a cloudy sky or a frosted windowpane. A single, prominent icicle draws the eye, rendered with delicate strokes that illustrate its smooth, elongated form and the subtle gradations of light and shadow that play across its surface. Small beads of water glisten on the icicle, suggesting the sun's warmth melting the ice. The most striking feature is the lone tear-shaped drop at the tip of the icicle, ready to fall, symbolizing a singular, poignant release. This tear is mirrored by another smaller droplet, and both seem suspended in time, encapsulating the transient beauty of change. Below the icicle, the background is a soft textural landscape of brush strokes, creating a quiet, abstract space for the subject to stand out. A tiny, crumpled leaf, possibly a holdover from autumn, is adrift in this expanse, adding a touch of melancholy to the scene as if bidding farewell to the past season. The overall effect of the painting is one of stillness and reflection, a visual meditation on the thaw as a slow, beautiful surrender.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "Winter tear"* ARTISTS: Anatoly Varvarov* SIZE: 100x70 cm/'39.37x27.55 inches'* MEDIUM: oil, canvas* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection* CONDITION: Photos provide accurate information about the product.About the artist: Varvarov Anatoly ViktorovichHe was born on February 12, 1967 in Kremenchuk, Poltava region.He graduated from Dnepropetrovsk Art School.
