Description of the Artwork “Oh FORTUNA! 110*110 cm”
The painting appeared in my mind when I listened to one of the greatest and most mysterious pieces of music of the 20th century. This is a symphonic cantata for choir "Carmina Burana". The composer Karl Orff combined 25 separate fragments into a single concert. And the first piece was named "OH FORTUNA". The lyrics of all the songs were created in the 13th century by the Vagantas - itinerant singers and poets, recorded and decorated with illustrations by the monks of the Bavarian monastery. All the texts are very vital - lyrical love serenades and romances, drinking songs, funny parodies. On the first page was a picture of the wheel of fortune. In the center is the figure of the Goddess of Fate. When the wheel rotates, the person depicted on the rim of the wheel finds himself in different positions. Fortune spins the wheel at random, each of us was convinced of this many times in our lives. You can make friends with Fortune, become her chosen one, admiring the subtle charm of her image in the picture. She will feel your love and reciprocate. I am confident that this elegant interior painting will fill the space of my new home with its luxurious image. The sides of the painting are painted, so there is no need to frame the painting with a frame. The size of the painting is 110 * 110 cm and plus the painted edges are 4 cm on each side. The painting is ready to be sent in a roll in a tube, but according to a preliminary agreement, I can pull it on a stretcher, which will require additional postage. Made on high-quality canvas (100% linen), canvas density 400 gr / meter. Used the best Russian oil paints produced in Russia, the city of St. Petersburg. 43.3*43.3 inches 110*110cm I did not attach the hangers on the back side, and I will attach them to the package. The painting is accompanied by a certificate of copyright issued in Russia by the city of St. Petersburg.
Oh FORTUNA! 110*110 cm
MARINA Venediktova, Russia
The artist shows the audience something unique that was noticed by him in a short moment in the vast time of his life. I am not an exception - I am a part of the world of artists, and therefore I constantly look at life either through a microscope or through a telescope. I am looking for exceptional and unique manifestations of reality in the smallest forms of the nature surrounding me. I am looking for clues inside the process of meditation, which is an important part of my life. I am looking for answers about the purpose of being, studying the ancient science of Astrology and applying its laws to my own Path on Earth. But words are too stingy to describe it, so I chose my own language – the language of canvas and oil paints. I know that I am on the right track. I am sure of it, because I am enjoying every moment of time I have spent, creating a new artwork. At these moments I talk to my inner self, and this conversation can last for hours. My work is not a static picture, it is a meditative rhythm, it is a flow of life, it is an experience that will open up to you in a new way every time. Perhaps you will solve this riddle, perhaps my stories will forever remain a mystery to you. But only one thing is important – you will be happy alone with my paintings that will decorate your home.
