This original work «Laces of St.Petersburg» was created by contemporary Russian artist Ekaterina Tomilovskaya and is available for purchase online.
Ekaterina Tomilovskaya’s painting “Laces of St.Petersburg” is not just a sketch of an urban landscape; it is a refined observation of the city’s life, its rhythm, beauty, and unique atmosphere. The artist uses a muted yet rich palette and a realistic style infused with the spirit of Impressionism to create on the canvas a sense of calm, a certain detachment, and a gentle melancholy characteristic of contemplating everyday life in St. Petersburg.
The focus is on the intricate railing of the embankment, occupying a significant part of the foreground. These metal “laces” are a recognizable symbol of St. Petersburg; their elegant lines echo the city’s architecture, creating a feeling of harmony and sophistication. Tomilovskaya meticulously works out the details of the railing, conveying the texture of the metal, the play of light and shadow, as well as reflections in the water.
Through the delicate curls of the railing, a view of the city opens up: buildings, a bridge, the spire of the Peter and Paul Cathedral reaching skyward. The city seems to “emerge” through the lace, gaining a special poetic and mysterious quality. The artist creates perspective with soft, blurred strokes, emphasizing the haze enveloping St. Petersburg.
The color scheme of the painting is kept in muted yet rich tones. The greenery, yellow buildings, gray sky, and reflections in the water create a rich and harmonious palette that conveys the atmosphere of the city on the Neva River. Tomilovskaya avoids bright, loud colors, preferring a restrained, elegant color scheme.
The choice of composition is interesting — an off-center focus, a close-up of the railing, and a concise cityscape. This composition allows the viewer to feel like an observer watching the city’s life through a “lace” frame.
“Laces of St.Petersburg” is not just an urban landscape; it is a visual poem about the city, its history, its beauty, and its mood. The painting invites the viewer to pause for a moment and feel the spirit of St. Petersburg.
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.
