About the Item

Victoria Novak’s "Umbria," a 2012 oil on canvas, is an intimate portrayal of still life that measures 15.70 x 15.70 inches, enclosed in a frame that brings its dimensions to 20.70 x 20.70 inches. This artwork captures a classical subject with a sublime sense of tranquility and time-honored aesthetic. Set against a warm, neutral background, the painting features a beautifully ornate bowl filled with ripe figs. The fruit's rich purples and reds, and the intricate detailing of the bowl's design, demonstrate Novak's virtuosity with the oil medium. There is a contrast of textures from the softness of the figs’ flesh to the hardness of the carved stone bowl, which the artist has rendered with great detail and depth. "Umbria" invites the viewer to savor the serene beauty and simplicity of the arrangement. The play of light and shadow on the figs and the tactile nature of the bowl’s surface make this piece a quiet yet compelling addition to any space or collection, ideal for those who appreciate the subtlety of still life and the beauty of everyday simplicity. 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.
