Description

Author: Akanayev, Iskander. 1974-2009
A genre-decorative composition depicting a rider on a horse in right-facing profile. The figures are centrally placed and rendered in a generalized, geometrized manner. The space is conceptual, divided into color planes. Additional symbolic details enhance the associative character of the image. The color palette is restrained, based on the combination of cool blue with muted ochre and grey tones. The painterly manner features pronounced stylization and a mosaic-like structure of form. In the upper left corner, there is a signature.
