This original work «Ships at the pier, Saint Petersburg.» was created by contemporary Russian artist Ekaterina Tomilovskaya and is available for purchase online.
Ekaterina Tomilovskaya’s painting «Ships at the pier, Saint Petersburg» is a picturesque cityscape imbued with the maritime spirit and atmosphere of the northern capital. The artist lovingly captured a scene from port life, where steel giants rest peacefully at the pier, awaiting new voyages. The use of muted yet rich tones, realism with elements of impressionism, and attention to detail create a sense of calm and harmony on the canvas. This is not just a depiction of ships but a story about a city inseparably connected to the sea.
The focus is on a group of ships moored at the pier. Different in size and purpose, they appear before the viewer in all their glory. From an elegant snow-white liner to a humble hardworking tugboat—each has its own character and story. Tomilovskaya masterfully conveys the volume and texture of the hulls, the play of light and shadow on their surfaces, as well as their reflections in the water.
A distinctive feature of the painting is the sky, occupying a large part of the canvas. The clouds, rendered in various shades of gray, blue, and white, seem to be in constant motion, creating a feeling of vastness and freedom. The artist conveys the dynamics of the clouds, their lightness and airiness, evoking a sense of realism and presence. The sky seems to reflect the city’s mood, its strength and grandeur.
Cranes can be seen not far from the ships.
In the foreground of the painting, on the water, in the calm aquatic space, the masts of the ships are reflected as if in a mirror.
The city visible on the horizon creates a sense of space and perspective. The buildings, painted in muted tones, seem to dissolve into the haze, creating an impression of mystery and enigma.
Tomilovskaya uses a technique of realism with elements of impressionism, emphasizing the transmission of light, shadow, and atmosphere. Soft brushstrokes, smooth color transitions, and delicate detail work create a feeling of realism and presence.
«Ships at the pier, Saint Petersburg» is not just a landscape but a true visual symphony celebrating the beauty of the city on the Neva and its connection to the sea. The painting seems to invite the viewer to pause for a moment and feel its grandeur.
The basis for this painting was a plein air study in Saint Petersburg on the English Embankment. Originally, the ships had no flags, but we were there on Navy Day. It turned out slightly cartoonish.
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.
