Winter Mountains

Description

Author: Duzhnov, Anatoly. 1942-2003
A landscape composition executed in an expressive manner with dense, textured brushwork and generalised colour modelling of form. It depicts rolling foothills with grazing animals in the distance, transitioning into a chain of high snow-capped mountains in the background. The space is built on the contrast between the sunlit slopes of the foreground and the cool shadows in the mountain gorges. The colour scheme combines the yellow-brown tones of the earth with the blue hues of the snowy peaks. Bottom right - signature.
