Solar eclipse
Drawing by Lana Korolievskaia
24 x 29.5 cm • Ink, Ink on paper
In her painting, the artist captured a total solar eclipse, which he witnessed. Happy are those people who happened to be in the mountains. And if you saw a solar eclipse there, you are doubly happy. Nature lives its usual life. The sun shines brightly in the blue sky. Mountain peaks touch the heavens majestically. Nothing foreshadows the coming event. But gradually the sunlight begins to wane. Damage appears on the right edge of the Sun. It slowly increases, and the solar disk takes the form of a crescent, convex to the left. The darkness deepens. It's getting colder. Finally, the last ray of sunshine is extinguished, and twilight falls on the entire surrounding area. This was a total solar eclipse. In place of the extinguished luminary, a black disk is seen, surrounded by a silvery pearl glow.
In life, eclipses also occur periodically. Everything plunges into darkness for a while. But after this, the light returns and the usual calm life continues. Let’s believe in the best.
