Winter, 2019

In this striking work, Nikolaï Dronnikov captures the silent beauty of a winter landscape. Beneath a soft white sky, the blue rooftops of houses emerge from fresh snow, evoking both the calm and poetry of the season. The contrast between the cold tones of the sky and the intensity of the blues gives the scene an atmosphere that is both realistic and lyrical.

The artist’s gaze explores the intimacy of winter — absent of human figures, yet full of presence. Each snow-covered rooftop seems to tell a story; each bluish shadow reflects the soft light of a winter’s day.
