About the Item

Oil on Canvas Original Painting in Wooden Gold Leaf, "Golden Griffins" An incredible and mystical collection of paintings, after a unique artist Andrew Ryabov - “Travellers of Civilisations”, will see the light internationally. For the first time a private collection is open to the public after 20 years of neglect in private storage. The collection of 11 works is transferred to the Art Gallery for further sale and decoration of the most exquisite interiors of the world. The artist works for private collectors many years and his name is known worldwide. He paints in his own manner, not similar to the others. The artist's work is titled "Golden Griffins". Because the lion was traditionally considered the king of the beasts, and the eagle the king of the birds, by the Middle Ages, the griffin was thought to be an especially powerful and majestic creature. Since classical antiquity, griffins were known for guarding treasures and priceless possessions. Here again the artist mixes cultures. This mythological figure of the griffin was spread from Egypt to India. Incredible mixing of colors gives the picture an image of mystery. It is as if the word Eternity is read from the canvas. The theme of gold runs through the whole collection. And this is no coincidence. It symbolizes the connection with past epochs, when art was accessible only to the elite. The golden epochs of history dissolve in the gold of the wide frame, specially designed according to the principle of the golden ratio. As in Malevich's black square, in the gold of sand, as if brought from the desert and frozen here in the form of golden dust, we see this Eternity, or rather, we feel its breath. The doors to Eternity are closed and only the boy's eyes are the only guide to this mystical distance, where all the secrets are hidden, most of which we never get to know. The magnetism of the painting is incredible. It is simply impossible to repeat this effect. Therefore, when we are talking about the artist's replication, we must realize that a new work of art does not resemble the original in the slightest.
