This original artwork "The Yards of Childhood." was created by the contemporary Russian artist Nikolay Lukashuk and is available for sale online.

This picture is a living chronicle of a bygone era, a visual memory of the yards where more than one generation grew up. The composition is built around old wooden and brick houses, drowning in greenery and sun in the summer. In the yard: a loose path, unexpectedly bright spots of flowers, a grazing cat, sheets drying on a line - many details recognizable to anyone who grew up in a provincial town or a small village. Children flicker against this background: they play, build something from scrap materials, rush skipping towards the summer. Old women sit next to each other, having a leisurely conversation, someone is fixing a bicycle, there is light and curtains in the windows, the trees in the yard are spreading shadows. The work is filled with light, comfort and love for simple life; in every brushstroke you can feel the warmth of memories, the desire to preserve frames from childhood as a treasure. The painting is a hymn to friendship, family, a state of serenity and domestic happiness; such a canvas is capable of evoking nostalgia in the viewer for native places, where everything seems eternal and indestructible.

The artist painted this courtyard in early spring, from the window of the second floor of his studio in Samara. Now there is neither this courtyard, nor the old creative workshop in which he used to work. But the old courtyard lives here, on this 50x60–chamber canvas, like an antique casket, containing the whole world of the author's childhood.It was like he was painting Brueghel in the Samara way. Only instead of the Flemish kids with sticks, there are his boys with hockey sticks. Instead of the snow–covered Flemish roofs, there were Samara roofs with peeling paint and icicles like glass fringes. 

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 "The Yards of Childhood." measuring 60 x 50 cm with secure shipping to your location!
