Original artwork description:
“View from the Hill” by Ukrainian artist Igor Galan is an evocative figurative painting that blends realism with expressive brushwork. The composition captures a woman in a light summer dress and wide straw hat, resting on a green hillside, her attention absorbed by a flower in hand. The soft terrain stretches toward a distant island on the horizon, a symbolic anchor suggesting longing, escape, or introspection.
Executed in oil on canvas (140x90x2 cm), the work demonstrates Galan’s signature style: classical figurative structure enhanced by impressionistic surface energy. The artist’s training is evident in the anatomical precision and realistic rendering of the subject, yet the dynamic strokes in the surrounding grass and fabric bring a sense of spontaneity and movement.
The painting embraces a romantic, naturalistic aesthetic, with undertones of nostalgia and poetic solitude. This original artwork, completed in 2024, is currently for sale, offering collectors a rare opportunity to acquire a work from Galan’s figurative collection.
