Description
In “My Love Letter to New York 001”, Sergei Moskalev captures the essence of New York through bold blues, fiery reds, and dynamic compositions that pulse with metropolitan life. This original work, created in oil and gold leaf on canvas and measuring 40×100 cm | 16×39 in, belongs to the My Love Letter to New York series — one of the artist’s most acclaimed collections.
“New York’s bridges are more than structures, they are symbols of connection, ambition, and timeless beauty. Each one carries its own rhythm: the strength of steel cables, the grace of arches, the way light moves across towers and walkways. I am endlessly inspired by their presence, whether seen from a bustling street below or from a quiet vantage across the water. In my paintings, I try to capture that combination of engineering and poetry, the way these iconic bridges hold both the city and its stories, standing proudly as monuments to movement, light, and human creativity.” — Sergei Moskalev
Born in 1970 in Penza, Russia, and now based in Israel, Sergei Moskalev has spent decades perfecting his expressive brushwork and palette knife technique. His New York paintings are celebrated for their emotional resonance — each canvas capturing not just the appearance of the Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan skyline, and bustling avenues, but the feeling of being present among them. As a member of the UNESCO International Federation of Artists, his work carries both artistic prestige and investment value.
Enhanced with gold leaf, the painting gains an additional dimension — a warm, luminous glow that shifts with the light, creating an almost living quality that photographs cannot fully capture.
