Equestrian Monument In The Mist – Follower Boris Alexeyevich Semyonov

Description
This evocative cityscape, signed “K. 1995,” portrays an equestrian monument silhouetted against a softly diffused urban backdrop, its neoclassical architecture dissolving into atmospheric mist. The artist’s restrained palette of greys, umbers, and ochres conveys a tone of quiet reflection, while the wet pavement mirrors the statue and figures below, enhancing the painting’s lyrical depth. Subtle brushwork and tonal balance reveal a sensitivity to light and atmosphere reminiscent of late Soviet and post-Soviet Lyrical Realism, where mood and poetic resonance replaced rigid representation. Similar in spirit to the works of Boris Alexeyevich Semyonov, the painting captures the emotional stillness of a rain-soaked square, suggesting introspection and timeless dignity within the modern city. The work’s composition—anchored by the monument and softened by vaporous tones—achieves both structure and dreamlike serenity, making it an ideal focal piece for a refined interior.

Artist Details
