Original artwork description
Alexander Levich’s Over the Deck (2017, oil on canvas, 50x70 cm) presents a luminous image of a seagull in flight, rendered with precision against a vibrant blue sky. The white of the bird’s feathers is enriched with soft tonal variations – violet, grey, and hints of gold – that bring realism and vitality to the scene.
For Levich, this is more than a study of a bird. The title roots the image in a sailor’s perspective. When sailing far from shore, seeing seagulls above the deck signals the nearness of land, and with it, safety and hope. In this way, the seagull becomes a symbol of orientation and optimism, a reminder that every voyage carries the promise of return.
The painting balances simplicity with emotional depth. The uncluttered background intensifies the sense of space, while the direct depiction of the gull conveys immediacy and closeness. Levich’s gift lies in using figurative detail to evoke not just appearance but feeling – in this case, the joy of recognizing a familiar sign of land after days at sea.
Over the Deck is an uplifting work that combines maritime narrative with technical skill, appealing to collectors who value figurative art infused with atmosphere and meaning.
