Original artwork description:

During a cold winter evening, next to the warm wood-fired stove, tasting a very good wine with a good friend.
Until late in the evening, many stories will be told. This was a sort of wine tasting, an evening soiree at a fantastic vintage shop.
My goal was to portray two men in an fun and relaxed setting. One man, wearing a felt hat and a heavy shearling coat, reclines in a chair, savoring a glass of red wine. Opposite him, an older gentleman with a neatly groomed beard, clad in a checkered shirt and black jacket, extends his glass, his pose reflecting friendship. They sit in a cozy corner, surrounded by a rustic ambiance, with a small table holding wine bottles and a glowing candle. The warm, inviting colors and detailed brushstrokes emphasize the atmosphere of companionship and warmth. I tried to capture the nuances of this moment, drawing the viewer into the scene. The contrast between the men's clothing and the intimate setting creates an interesting dialogue between ruggedness and refinement, making the piece strikingly memorable.
