Night Over the City

A captivating oil painting depicting a nighttime view of a city illuminated by the moonlight, featuring old buildings and a cathedral atop a hill.

This oil painting by Ukrainian artist Iryna Malynovska is created on canvas, using a layering technique to achieve depth and texture. The brush strokes vary from fine touches for the architectural details to broader, more expressive strokes for the night sky. The impasto technique is used to add texture and dimension, particularly in the buildings and vegetation. The color palette is dominated by deep blues, emerald greens, and touches of yellow and white, creating a vibrant and luminous scene despite the darkness. The subtle use of light and shadow creates an atmosphere of mystery and calm.

This work by Iryna Malynovska captures the serenity and mysterious beauty of a night in the city. The scene shows old buildings with illuminated windows, suggesting the life inside behind the quiet facades. At the top of the hill, a white cathedral with green domes stands out against the night sky, bathed in moonlight. The sky is richly textured with shades of blue, purple, and pink, adding atmospheric depth to the work. The bright moon illuminates the scene with a soft glow, creating reflections and shadows that add dynamism and life to the composition. The meticulous details of the buildings and trees demonstrate the artist's technical mastery, while the expressive use of color and light captures the emotion and ambiance of the night.
