Original artwork description:

Alexander Levich’s Windmills (2017, oil on canvas, 90x150 cm) depicts the vivid calm of a road after rainfall. The wide strip of asphalt glistens with reflections beneath a deep blue sky. On the right, a line of white turbines turns slowly in the fresh countryside air. Silos and barns mark the distance, reminding us of the rural setting. The entire composition suggests both stillness and movement, anchoring the viewer in the rhythm of travel.

Levich often translates his own experiences of driving into paintings, and here he captures the mixture of emotions that come with long journeys: a little tiredness, the quiet renewal after rain, and the anticipation of reaching somewhere new. The road is not only a physical path but also a metaphor for passage – through places, meetings, and memories yet to come.

Executed with clarity and atmosphere, the painting balances realistic detail with mood. The juxtaposition of natural elements, human technology, and the solitary road creates an image that resonates universally. Collectors will find in Windmills a work that speaks of motion and reflection, an evocative piece that turns everyday travel into something poetic.
