Portrait of Ilya (2016) Original Oil Painting by Zakhar Shevchuk
62 x 73 x 0.3cm (unframed)
£2,378.32
Original artwork description
Portrait of Ilya is a large-scale oil painting depicting a seated male figure positioned against a divided background. The raw board surface on one side contrasts with dense grey brushwork on the other, creating structural tension within the composition.
The figure’s posture is inward and restrained, with arms folded and body slightly withdrawn. A luminous yellow field behind the head introduces psychological contrast, while a black drip on the exposed board surface disrupts compositional stability. The painting suggests silent endurance and emotional containment rather than overt expression.
Measuring 73x62 cm and painted in 2016, this oil on fiberboard holds strong visual presence. It appeals to collectors interested in contemporary figurative portraiture that explores introspection, vulnerability, and structural clarity.
