This original work "It's not evening yet" was created by the contemporary Russian artist Alexander Samokhvalov and is available for purchase online.
Alexander Samokhvalov's painting "Ещё не вечер" is a subtle and meditative exploration of coastal light at that very transitional moment when the day is not yet over, but the sunset has already begun to color the sky. This canvas is about the light that has not yet given way to darkness.
The composition of the painting is extremely simple and focused on the horizon. The artist divides the space into three main planes: sky, sea, and shore.
The sky occupies the upper part of the painting and is entirely dominated by the prevailing light. Golden, almost whitish sun rays break through high cirrus clouds, creating an effect of diffused yet powerful radiance. The clouds are painted in soft pastel tones—pale lavender and blue—that perfectly contrast with the warm glow at the very edge.
The sea reflects this illumination, becoming a golden shimmering plain. However, the foreground belongs to the waves. Here Samokhvalov demonstrates his skill in depicting the movement of water. Before the viewer rises a powerful but still unbroken wave. Its body is translucent with sunlight, but the base and shadow are painted in deep cool tones—emerald and blue—emphasizing the volume and strength of the wave. The foam at the base appears almost white from the falling light.
At the very bottom edge of the canvas, a dark pebble line of the shore is visible, serving as a connecting link for the entire composition.
In the painting "Ещё не вечер," Samokhvalov captured that fragile beauty when the golden middle of the day meets the coolness of the approaching night. It is a moment of calm, heralding a bright sunset, but for now—the triumph of the last, purest light of the day.
This painting can be hung on the wall in your apartment, house, office, restaurant, or hotel, and it will become a wonderful decoration for your interior.
