Ended Original Oil on Canvas Painting OOC Listed Russian Artist Vyosilieva Contemporary Stages Russian Surrealism

This is a beautiful oil painting on canvas. It is framed and signed by Vyosilieva. This skilled painter of the contemporary Russian tradition uses whimsical imagery derived from folklore, to evoke a surreal allegory in her works. Her imaginative figures and landscape are tied together always by her technical discipline and control of her medium. This particular piece focuses on the life of a ballerina, isolated in a mystical desert, a distant figure of youth behind her, a solitary companion beside her, a dog. The artist has addressed the fleeting nature of time and the melancholy of growing old, of forgotten talents and human loneliness. A truly beautiful, heartfelt image. This piece comes set in an impressive solid wood frame. It measures 20 inches wide by 24 inches long, and 25 x 29 including frame.
