This old woman is a 92-year-old Ukrainian who meets Ukrainian soldiers who liberated her village from Russian invaders. She gives the soldiers what she has - apples from her garden. The photo of this woman with kind, penetrating and trusting blue eyes that are watering from old age, with crusty hands that have worked all her life, struck me to the core.
I felt someone very close to me in this woman - like my grandmother, and in her gifts, which she holds so carefully in her hands, I see not just apples, but a blessing that an old woman bestows on her descendants from the height of her years, wisdom and love . She is like a foremother who blesses and supports. She is the root that nourishes.
This psychological female portrait is very special to me. It is about the family and the connection of generations, it is about the love and strength that the earth, which is also our foremother, gives us in its fruits. This portrait is about the transparent beauty of old age.
Oil on a gallery canvas, signed and dated.
Certificate of Authenticity is included.
