Commentary
Van Gogh's palette leaps to mind upon seeing the sheer richness
of color and brushstroke in this work by Yelizaveta. The street lamps
are smouldering in the dusk, spilling rays onto a street scene of cars
nearing a fork in the road. The people in the cars are enjoying a scenic
tour but approaching a decision. There is a couple of lovers watching
the cars and heading towards the hotel hidden in the foliage. It is an
enchanted land where every direction is a beautiful one. The perspective
and shading of the crayon is like Van Gogh's burningly orange Night Cafe.
The rendering is sensuous, the work aflame with spirit.
