About the Item

Flowers in a vase Oil on canvas, 66x49 cm Still life painting with stylized sunflowers on light-colored background. The focal point of the artwork is the depiction of sunflowers, known for their vibrant colors and symbolic representation of joy and vitality. The artist skillfully uses oil paints to bring out the radiance and natural beauty of these flowers. The petals are painted in rich, warm tones of yellow and orange, capturing the essence of their vibrant and energetic nature. Laimdots Murnieks has said: "I am a sunny artist. The sun and a woman are the center of the world. It is not for nothing that the sun always comes with me in my paintings - it is the basis of everything and symbolizes my wife - Zhanna. I think that a woman is what inspires the whole world to do good deeds. I want to express such an idea with my painting - that the good will always win, that the beautiful will always win the world. That's the main thing! Neither war nor tragedies ever impress people like that, but it is beauty that gives strength to continue working and living . I was born under the Star of Happiness - everything has been achieved. Both in art and in love." Laimdots Murnieks (1922-2011) studied at Cesis and Jelgava teachers’ institutes (1938 – 44). He graduated from the Painting Department of the Latvian Art Academy (1953, diploma work “Winged helper”, under the guidance of V. Kozins). He worked as a teacher in secondary schools of Valmiera and Priekuli, in agricultural technical school (1944 – 46), and in the company “Art” as a design artist (1953 – 82). L.
