Original artwork description:

"Charon" is an outstanding work created using charcoal and Russian sauce on toned paper, offering a philosophical reflection on the mythological figure of Charon, the famous ferryman of souls across the River Styx.
Charon seems to emerge from the darkness, appearing from the depths of the unknown. He glides in a barely discernible boat, shrouded in gloom and mystery. The open mouth of the figure speaks of madness, while his eyes are blind, yet his undeniable strength commands awe and respect. The interplay of contrasting shadows and light accents creates a dramatic atmosphere, enhancing the grandeur and enigma of the image.
This piece showcases a masterful combination of classical technique and modern
approach, immersing the viewer in an aura of mysticism and eternity, making the
mythological motif vivid and relevant.
