Rendered in bold strokes and vivid colors, the composition offers a poetic vision of countryside life where nature and routine coexist in perfect balance. At the center of the canvas, a group of cows reclines peacefully on a grassy pasture, their forms dark and rounded, contrasting against the lively hues of the landscape. These resting animals—full from feeding—symbolize a moment of complete harmony with their environment. They are grounded and serene, anchoring the entire composition with a sense of calm that radiates outward. The foreground bursts with bright, impressionistic greens and blues, reflecting the richness of the summer grass and the subtle play of light and shadow across the field. The artist’s impasto technique gives a tactile presence to the landscape, where each blade of grass and each tuft of earth seems to be built up through deliberate, textured layers. Swaths of cobalt blue and turquoise dance among the grass, suggesting cool shade and the lingering freshness of a breeze drifting through the open plain. Moving upward, the composition becomes more abstract and expressive. Trees, standing like gentle sentinels at the edge of the field, stretch upward in a flurry of motion and color. Their trunks twist in rich hues of forest green, indigo, and russet, while their leafy canopies swirl with brushstrokes of gold, teal, and violet. These trees seem to echo the relaxed energy of the cows below, swaying quietly in the breeze and filtering the late-day sun through their branches. Above it all, a large, pale sun or moon hangs suspended in a soft, golden-brown sky. Its exact identity is deliberately ambiguous—suggesting either the lingering glow of afternoon or the first pale gleam of evening. This celestial presence adds a dreamlike atmosphere to the piece, as if time has softened and slowed, and the day is drifting gently toward its close. The sky, painted in muted olive tones and brushed with streaks of warm ochre and soft lavender, evokes a quiet transition from light to dusk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*** ABOUT THIS PAINTING ***\u003cbr\u003e* TITLE: \"After lunch in the field\"\u003cbr\u003e* ARTISTS: Oleksiy Ivanyuk\u003cbr\u003e* SIZE: 25x30 cm\/'9.84x11.81 inches'\u003cbr\u003e* MEDIUM: oil, canvas\u003cbr\u003e* HAND PAINTED: Original painting from our collection\u003cbr\u003e* CONDITION: Photos provide accurate information about the product.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the artist: Born March 13, 1954, in the city of Piryatin, Poltava region.
