This oil painting cardboard, titled "The sun sets over the river", the artist uses thick, expressive brushstrokes and a bold color palette to convey the warmth of the evening light reflecting off the water's surface. The sky dominates the upper part of the painting, filled with vibrant shades of yellow, orange, and deep blue. The heavy impasto technique gives the sky a rich texture, suggesting the presence of thick clouds illuminated by the last rays of the sun. The contrast between the warm golden hues and the deep, dark blues creates a sense of depth and movement, as if the sky is in constant flux. Below, the river reflects the luminous colors of the sky, shimmering with golden and ochre tones. The water’s surface is depicted with a combination of smooth horizontal strokes and dynamic, textured patches of paint, adding a sense of rippling movement. The bright, glowing reflections create a path leading toward the horizon, drawing the viewer’s eye into the distance. A small blue boat with a lone figure is positioned on the river, slightly off-center. The bold contrast between the deep blue of the boat and the surrounding golden light enhances its presence, making it a focal point in the composition. The posture of the figure conveys a sense of peaceful solitude, reinforcing the contemplative mood of the scene. The riverbank is depicted with a mixture of earthy greens, browns, and hints of red, representing the vegetation and natural landscape that frame the water. The impasto technique gives the foliage a sense of density and wildness, adding to the immersive quality of the painting. The loose, abstract treatment of the trees and plants suggests movement, as if the wind is gently rustling through the leaves. The painting's overall atmosphere is one of warmth and tranquility, capturing the fleeting moment when daylight fades and the world transitions into night. The contrast between the fiery hues of the sunset and the cool blues of the water and sky adds a dramatic tension, making the scene feel alive and dynamic.
