About the Item

The painting “Akari. Holiday” continues the series of paintings “Children of the World”. "Akari is the most popular girl's name in Japan today." said Anna about this portait. "The girl is dressed in traditional national clothes - a kimono. By the black color, it is easy to see that it is winter. In spring, the green and pink shades of cherry blossoms are used, in summer - blue, and in autumn - the colors of falling leaves. Judging by the composition of the fabric, which is silk, it is easy to guess that the girl comes from a wealthy family, since silk kimono is very expensive and is sewn with a lining. It is very important for the Japanese to wrap their robe correctly. The left side must be on top of the right. Nowadays, European clothes are quickly replacing the kimono, which is still worn only on holidays, funerals and festivals, and the kimono is still the working clothes of geishas. And few continue to wear kimonos as everyday clothes." The picture is painted in a mixed style. It combines elements of realism, impressionism and expressionism. The painting is equipped with hooks and can be hung on the wall immediately. No frame is required as the sides are also painted dark. The gallery presents the Swiss artist Anna Shesterikova, a high professional who has been working in the international art market for many years.
