Purple Iris at Sunset (2026) Original Oil Painting by Anastasiia Aguf

Purple Iris at Sunset is an expressive oil painting inspired by a purple iris growing on the Mediterranean coast. The large flower dominates the foreground, surrounded by tall vegetation, while the sea and glowing sunset appear in the distance.

Rich violet, purple and magenta tones of the iris contrast with turquoise, cobalt and green in the surrounding plants. Beyond them, the warm golden sky and glimpses of the Mediterranean Sea create a sense of depth and connect the intimate floral subject with the wider coastal landscape.

Thick, energetic brushstrokes and layers of colour give the iris a strong physical presence, while the distant sea and evening light bring openness and atmosphere to the composition. The painting captures a moment when flower, landscape and sunset become united through colour and light.
