Beef (2017) Original Oil Painting by Alexander Levich

Alexander Levich’s Beef captures a meal through the gestures of the person enjoying it. A hand holds a knife in the foreground, while another holds a fork above a plate of grilled beef. A glass of red wine completes the close view of the table.

The figure’s face remains outside the frame, allowing the hands and objects to suggest the moment. The cutlery creates movement across the composition, while warm colour gives the food a strong presence against the pale tablecloth.

Levich combines recognisable detail with loose, visible brushwork. Brown, ochre and red are balanced by cooler highlights in the metal and glass, encouraging attention to the different surfaces.

Created in 2017, this oil painting on canvas measures 50 × 70 × 2 cm. Its intimate viewpoint conveys the anticipation and simple pleasure of an everyday meal.
