Original artwork description:

In Alexander Levich's "The Giant," the timeless art of realism is skillfully employed to depict a scene rich in pastoral beauty and life's unspoken symphonies. Levich, taking a leaf from the distinguished Rosa Bonheur, channels the essence of 19th-century realism into this small yet profoundly detailed work on wood. The painting is a narrative, one that tells of the gentle giants of the field and their bond with humanity. Levich's technique, a hallmark of realism, captures the texture of the environment and the soul of his subjects with each stroke. The result is a piece that not only reflects the aesthetic traditions of the past but also the artist’s acute sense of observation and his ability to capture reality on a tangible surface. The realism in this work offers a tactile experience, engaging the viewer in a dialogue with history and the transcendent beauty of nature.
