Picture: " Preparation for departure. Battleship "Marat"

In the foreground, sailors are loading provisions onto the ship. And in the background, the silhouette of the battleship "Marat" comes out of the turquoise fog - red at sunset. It's not only red from sunset. This is a warship, huge, powerful, survived its victories and defeats. And in the near future is going to survive. He is quietly dozing in the fog, waiting for the departure, while people are bustling down on the pier. A formidable opponent for the enemy, a powerful defense for his people.
------------------
The painting is inspired by the port views of Sevastopol. I am very inspired by warships. Even then, when I was walking along the embankment of Sevastopol, looking at the parade of ships for the Navy Day, the plot of this picture was born in my head. I wanted to show all the greatness and power of a ship that faithfully serves the fatherland.
