Sviatlana Petushkova - Sail

"Sail" by artist Svetlana Petushkova is an atmospheric, handcrafted cyanotype print created in 2026. Executed using the historic 19th-century alternative photographic process, this piece captures a classic gaff-rigged wooden sailboat gliding through the open sea beneath a dramatic, cloud-filled sky.

The cyanotype technique infuses the seascape with rich, hypnotic shades of Prussian blue and soft white highlights. The visible handcrafted margins surrounding the print emphasize the artisanal, one-of-a-kind nature of alternative photography, making it a timeless piece for collectors of nautical art and fine art photography.

This artwork is part of a strictly limited edition of only 20 prints, making each piece highly collectible.
