The painting "Sleep" presents to a wide circle of painting lovers the lyrical side of Victoria Kostenko's work
The artist depicts a sleeping baby with an unusually heartfelt touch. The color scheme of the picture gives the nude baby body the effect of transparency and weightlessness. The sleeping child looks childishly touching
A white sheet, touched by cold shadows from the winter sunlight from the window, reminds the viewer of the spiritual purity and innocence of the little creature. The artist, depicting a sleeping child surrounded by his favorite toys, fills the space of the picture with cheerful colors and tenderness.
This painting is an excellent example of the Russian school of realism.
