This original work, «In the village of Abalak», was created by contemporary Russian artist Alexander Samokhvalov and is available for purchase online.
Alexander Samokhvalov's painting «В деревне Абалак» is a remarkable piece where the images of Russian folklore come to life, blending with a realistic depiction of rural life. The artist creates a magical yet very earthly scene, inviting the viewer into the world of Russian folk tales.
The central element of the painting is a hut on chicken legs, which, according to the inscription on the facade, belongs to «Baba Yaga». The hut is built from massive logs with rough but expressive carvings. Its roof is covered with straw, and the wooden annex with a staircase looks impressive and mysterious. Decorative elements on the hut’s facade resemble fairy-tale images: skulls, bones, stylized figures.
The staircase leading to the door is adorned with carved posts. On the platform in front of the entrance stands a wooden barrel, and nearby is a broom, as if the owner has just stepped out. The hut’s windows are small and appear dark, adding to the intrigue.
Surrounding the hut stretches the rural landscape. In the foreground is a stone-paved path and grass, among which stumps and small wooden posts are visible. Behind the hut extends a body of water, likely a river or lake, and on the horizon, a line of fields and forest is painted in softer, blurred tones.
The sky above the village is clear, blue, with light white clouds, creating the impression of a sunny, warm day.
Alexander Samokhvalov masterfully combines the realism of rural buildings with fantastic elements. «In the village of Abalak» is a painting that awakens childhood memories, evokes thoughts of fairy tales, and shows how folk stories can come alive on canvas, bringing a touch of magic to everyday life.
This painting can be hung on the wall in your apartment, house, office, restaurant, or hotel, and it will become a wonderful decoration for your interior.
