Predestination (Prémonition) by Dmitriy Shaban (1957), an oil on canvas from the 1990s, Russia, signed by hand, original edition, sold with a custom frame, 58 x 78 cm.
Description from the seller
- Oil on canvas. Original canvas.
- Inscribed on the back:
D. Shaban Predvestie 1998g. Kholst, maslo 50kh70 g. Tver
(D. Shaban Predvestie 1998g. Canvas, oil 50x70 g. Tver)
- Perhaps Premonition on Dmitriy Shaban's canvas does not consist of announcing an explicit omen, but in the suspended, lyrical moment where light and matter understand that they are about to dissolve. The onion-domed domes and the Byzantine bell tower do not rest on stone, but on a tremor of the spatula, trapped in the dull trench where the dying gold of the afternoon is violently invaded by a shadow of violet and ominous purples. Perhaps the premonition is of an imminent storm that will not fall from the sky, but spring from the earth’s entrails itself, a cathartic omen where Orthodox architecture awaits, with almost mystical resignation, the slash of night or history, knowing it is the last fortress before the landscape irrevocably transforms into overwhelming abstraction.
- Image dimensions without frame: 48 x 68 cm / 58 x 78 cm with exclusive custom frame.
