Anatoly Kostenko's painting, representative of Russian and Soviet artists, a member of the Union of artists of the USSR, a famous Soviet landscape painter “Spring in the Village” was painted in 1978. Materials: oil, canvas Dimensions: 65 cm x 75 cm (25.59 "x 29.52") This work is distinguished by its rich panoramic and spatial solutions. The canvas was made with a particular complexity of color abstraction, where details are very meticulously conveyed, and the overall color scheme is very emotional. In the picture we see a bewitching rural landscape. Spring is in the prime of life. The whole picture is completely flooded with light, it just exudes cheerfulness and positive. In the foreground are tall trees that stretch their green branches toward the sun. Behind them stands a tractor, several trailers filled with grain. In the village, preparations are underway for sowing. Spring is not only a time of fun and carelessness. This is a time of hard peasant labor. Rested, warmed land is waiting for its workers ... In the background are rural houses. With the advent of spring, the village is gradually transforming. Houses no longer seem so gray and plain. The fields were strewn with a green carpet of grass, which makes you want to walk along this carpet path, soak up the sun, listen to the twittering of birds.

The painting is signed by the artist in the lower right corner The title "Autumn fair” Materials: sandpaper, pastel Dimensions: 55 cm x 70 cm (21.65 x 27,56) The fair is the most important event in rural life. The opportunity to buy for the future, sell the surplus, have fun, finally. All are engaged in bargaining, choice, calculation. Crowds of people walk around the bustling market square, looking at all kinds of dishes, souvenirs - in general, everything that sellers brought here. The fair is noisy.  In the foreground are two women discussing what is happening, comparing last year's fairs with the current one.  And above, above the bustle of the fair, a clear sky, in the distance yellow autumn trees, the dark roof of an old canopy. Very funny, kind, peaceful picture. He needs a frame to hold it in place, but I will let the next owner decide which type of frame and which color will look better. I like these old paintings leaning against the walls because they really don't even need a frame to add to their interior style. Hello, our dear customer.
