”THE GIANT TAKING A WALK”
1974 Oil on Panel 16 x 20
” THE GIANT TAKING A WALK” is a lovely and quite painterly dream-like Artwork by Noted International Artist Ari Roussimoff. It is an Authentic Signed and Dated Oil on Panel Painting measuring 16 x 20 inches from 1974. Painted in rich, vivid colors and with heavily textured brushwork, here is quite an amusing winter fantasy scene of old-world Mother Russia. Wearing classic fur hat, jacket and boots to keep warm, a Giant is out taking his daily stroll through a rustic old village. There is lots of snow, a traditional onion domed Orthodox church, a classic windmill and a neighbor is out for a sleigh ride. The heavy brushwork enhances the effect of a heavy snowfall in this picturesque folk life painting. This is a fairy tale come to life. A perfect addition to any quality collection of fine art or Russian and Slavic culture.
