ORIGINAL ART // VINTAGE painting Genre scene / Summer landscape / Art of nature / Children have a rest / One of a kind. The painting “Faithful Friends” was painted by the famous artist of the USSR Anatoly Kostenko in 1975. Materials: oil, cardboard Dimensions: 90.5 cm x 79 cm (35.43 "x 31.10") The painting depicts a sunny day. This can be seen by the bright spots on the green grass. The centerpiece of the picture is two teenagers who read books in a green sunny meadow covered with dense emerald grass. One of them sits, lowering the book, and looks thoughtfully into the distance. The second lies on the grass and carefully reads a book. Through the crown of trees, sun glare falls into the clearing. The boys are dressed in jeans and light summer shirts. They took off their shoes so as not to interfere with the gentle touch of warm grass. Next to the young men lies their faithful friend - a dog. Her tail is down and her face is on the grass. On one ear there is a dark spot or is it a shadow from a tree, the nose is black, A little off, on the ground, you can see domestic birds: geese pinch the green grass and look for something on the ground. The picture is executed in pleasant and gentle tones for a look. The harmony that the author wanted to present to his audience is impressive. The harmony of people and animals who enjoy life together. I want to admire this picture forever. Since it carries a charge of positive energy. I would like to hang such a picture at home in the living room so that when I come home, my mood immediately rises. Hello, our dear customer. If you buy 3 things, we will give you a 20% discount.
