The original work "Ruby" is by contemporary Austrian artist Walerij Baranow and is available online.
Valery Baranov’s painting “Ruby” presents a complex and multifaceted composition in which the artist explores the themes of love, passion, sensuality, as well as the fragility and value of relationships. Using a bright yet muted color palette and stylization techniques, he creates an atmosphere of romance, mystery, and some drama characteristic of the theme of love. It’s not just an image of kissing figures and a ruby, but a visual metaphor for the strength and, at the same time, vulnerability of loving feelings, their ability to bring joy and cause pain, as well as the value of every moment spent together.
At the center of the painting are two golden figures capturing a moment of a kiss. Their forms, stylized and simplified, create a feeling of timelessness and otherworldly beauty. The gold used to depict the figures seems to symbolize love, wealth, and nobility, emphasizing the value and significance of the relationship. The kiss appears to be an expression of tenderness, passion, and closeness, uniting the lovers into one whole.
A special feature of the painting is the image of a ruby lying next to the figures. The ruby, rendered in a bright, saturated red color, seems to symbolize love, passion, and vital energy. Its radiance attracts the eye and creates a feeling of sensuality and excitement. The ruby seems to be a witness to love, holding its secrets. The drops running down its surface indicate that not everything in the relationship is cloudless.
In the background of the painting, you can see a drapery of blue color.
The artist uses the technique of realism with elements of stylization and symbolism, focusing on conveying the emotional state and creating an overall impression of passion, romance, and драматизме. Bright colors, clear lines, and unusual combinations create a feeling of an artificial world in which love is the main value.
This painting can be hung on the wall of your apartment, house, office, restaurant, or hotel and will be a wonderful decoration for your interior. You can buy online the artwork “Ruby” measuring 100 x 75 cm with secure shipping to your location.
