The City Was More Beautiful from Afar

Description

This oil painting is an intriguing juxtaposition of urban silhouettes against a vast, glowing moon. The artist has expertly used a gradient of dark green and black hues in the sky, creating an enveloping nocturnal atmosphere. The solid, shadowed forms of the city buildings are painted in soft shades of gray and blue, their edges merging seamlessly into the dark night. The bright moon, rendered in a pale, luminescent white, dominates the background, casting an ethereal glow across the scene. The lower portion of the artwork features a subtle reflection of the city lights on the water, adding depth and intrigue. The meticulous play between light and shadow, combined with the restrained palette, evokes a sense of quiet contemplation and distant beauty.
