Author: Semenitskaya Ekaterina

canvas/oil 30cm x 40cm 2022
Immerse yourself in a tranquil winter fairy tale. The painting combines the grandeur of a cathedral rendered in warm goldenbeige tones with the cozy presence of a festively decorated Christmas tree beside its walls. In the foreground a neat stone bridge leads over a bubbling river filled with golden reflections from the cathedral’s faade. These shimmering highlights give the composition movement and a sense of living light. In the distance snowcapped mountains rise, creating a feeling of depth and harmony between nature and architecture. The night sky is strewn with stars and a crescent moon, while tiny fairies, barely visible in the glow, add a touch of magic and warmth.
