Victoria Novak"Roman Noon" Classical Grape Still Life Oil Painting2014

About the Item
"Roman Noon" is an exquisitely detailed classical still life by Victoria Novak, rendered in oil on canvas in 2014. This artwork, within its decorative frame measuring 24.70 x 24.70 inches, invites the viewer into a timeless tradition of still life painting. On its own, the canvas is a precise 19.70 x 19.70 inches, a testament to Novak's dedication to form and the intimate scale of classical compositions.
The painting presents a wicker basket brimming with clusters of grapes, their varied hues of purple and gold rendered with a naturalistic touch that conveys both the texture of the fruit and the ambient light of a serene, sunlit day. The leaves, with their autumnal tinges, suggest the end of the harvest, adding a layer of narrative to the simple, yet profound beauty of the subject.
"Roman Noon" is a work that exemplifies Novak’s meticulous technique and her ability to infuse a classical subject with a sense of modern clarity. The care taken in crafting the shadows and highlights on each grape speaks to the artist's skill and elevates the piece to a study of light as much as a celebration of nature's bounty.
About the Artist:
Realist painter Victoria Novak began her artistic career as an interior designer in her native Russia, where she graduated from the Academy of Arts. After a few years as a successful designer, she moved to Europe where she earned a Master Degree in Interior and Living Design from Domus Academy in Milan. After that, she started working in the studio Fuksas in Rome.
A move to Rome, where her love for Italian Renaissance developed, inspired Victoria to devote herself to painting. Of adopting the time-honored techniques, Victoria says: “At first it was more out of curiosity, but in the end, I discovered a method that helps me to realize my ideas in the most satisfying way.” Working with incredible attention to detail, color and form, Victoria paints portraits and still lifes that deliver drama and beauty in organic, natural ways.
She currently lives in Italy, where she continues to develop as an artist and illustrator. In 2018 she became an Adobe Partner joining the “Start with Stock” program for Adobe Stock. Victoria’s work has been featured in “International Artist Magazine”, “American Art Collector” and included in numerous juried exhibitions. Her paintings can also be found in private collections in Russia, Malta, Italy, Switzerland and the U.S.

- Pink Ball & Hook (Photorealist Oil Painting of Industrial Equipment on Blue)Located in Hudson, NYVertical photo-realist painting on canvas of pale pink ball with steel colored hook on a bright sky blue background 72 x 36 x 1.5 inches oil on canvas, thin wood stripping signed "Richards" on bottom right corner in yellow paint wire is installed on the back for easy hanging This precisely detailed photo-realist painting was made by Joseph E. Richards in 1981. The artist painted this piece when he was 60 years old during a successful career painting trains, cargo ships, and industrial machinery. Richards served in the US Navy during WWII and went on to study at the American Academy of Art in Chicago and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia before showing with Ivan Karp of O.K. Harris Gallery in NYC. The artist moved upstate to Hillsdale, NY for the later years of his life. This painting captures one of Richards' most beloved subjects, close up views of industrial equipment against a vivid blue sky. With a photo-realist approach to the subject, Richard was able to capture detailed changes in light and shadow, shape and form. The pale pink colored ball and steel colored hook, down to each screw and bolt, is completed with extreme focus and precision. One could easily confuse this painting with a photograph since it was completed with a very smooth application of paint, with no texture built upon the surface. It is not until you examine the painting up close, do you realize the artist's calculated brushwork. The painting is framed with natural wood stripping. The work is lightweight and easy to hang with wire installed on the back.The artist's signature is located on the front and back of the canvas. About the artist: Joseph Richards’ precisely painted canvases of giant cranes, cargo booms, propellers and train engines are fueled with a fascination like that of a six-year old boy. Working directly from photographs, Richards unites light and color together as one element, evident in the reflective surfaces of steel. The otherwise mundane signs of corrosive wear are magnified; rust stains glow on the canvas and yellow painted pulleys radiate like beacons against a bright, blue sky. Richards finds beauty in their dramatic color, resilient texture, definitive form and functionality. Richards paints sections of these objects in grand scale, with canvases up to 6 feet long and eye-popping color, calling attention to their massive proportions and exceptional strength. Richards had solo exhibits in New York City, Scottsdale AZ, and Washington DC, and his work is found in private and corporate collections here and abroad, e.g., the Tucson Museum of Fine Arts, Mobil Oil, Lankenau Hospital in Philadelphia, and E. Jean Belloni in Geneva, Switzerland. Resume: Born in 1921 in Des Moines, Iowa, Joseph Richards left for Chicago after high school to pursue a career in art. After serving in the U.S. Navy from 1942 – 1945, he went on to study at the American Academy of Art in Chicago and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia. He eventually settled with his wife, Betty, in New York City. In 1969, longtime dealer Ivan Karp opened The OK Harris Gallery on West Broadway in Manhattan’s SoHo. Karp was at the forefront of the Photorealism movement, showing artists such as Duane Hanson and Manny Farber...Category
