Title: Oil painting City in the rays of sunset Oleksiy Ivanyuk Description: No.AAA5667The Oil painting Canvas titled “City in the rays of sunset” captures an enchanting urban landscape suffused with the magical warmth of twilight. Through the expressive power of bold impasto and a vibrant palette, the artist translates the familiar sight of a city into a luminous spectacle where architecture, nature, and human presence are bathed in the golden glow of the setting sun. The work conveys not only the physical beauty of the moment but also the fleeting emotional resonance of a city transformed by light. The backdrop is dominated by monumental silhouettes of domes, towers, and spires, painted in shades of teal and turquoise. These architectural forms, with their vertical emphasis and rounded tops, suggest both history and grandeur. They rise majestically against a sky that glows with radiant yellows and oranges, intensifying the impression that the city is embraced by the last rays of the sun. The transition from golden light to the cooler tones of architecture creates a dynamic interplay of warmth and coolness, light and shadow, embodying the essence of sunset’s fleeting duality. In the middle ground, a burst of vibrant foliage in yellows, reds, and oranges brings vitality and movement into the composition. The trees, rendered with thick, almost sculptural strokes of the brush, seem to ignite in the sunset glow. Their crowns appear illuminated from within, as though the sunlight is caught between the leaves, dispersing into fiery fragments. The artist’s choice of intense, contrasting hues emphasizes the moment when daylight lingers in nature’s textures, just before surrendering to evening shadows. Beneath the trees, a park or boulevard scene unfolds, alive with the presence of small, simplified human figures. These figures, painted with quick strokes of dark tones accented by touches of blue, pink, and ochre, suggest citizens walking, conversing, or simply enjoying the cooling evening air. Though indistinct, their presence grounds the painting in everyday life, reminding the viewer that behind the grandeur of architecture and brilliance of sunset, a city is first and foremost a place of human interaction and rhythm.*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING **** TITLE: "City in the rays of sunset"* ARTISTS: 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.
