Description
“My Love Letter to Venice 018” is an original oil and gold leaf on canvas painting by contemporary Israeli artist Sergei Moskalev. Measuring 50×70 cm | 20×28 in, this piece is part of the celebrated My Love Letter to Venice collection — a deeply personal artistic tribute to romance, mystery, and timeless beauty.
“Piazza San Marco holds a quiet grandeur that feels both open and intimate at once. The space breathes with light, shifting gently across the stone and rising along the surrounding facades, while the rhythm of people moving through it gives it a soft, living pulse. I am drawn to the balance it carries between stillness and movement, elegance and everyday life. In my painting, I try to capture that atmosphere, where the square becomes more than a place, but a moment suspended in light, history, and quiet beauty.” — Sergei Moskalev
Sergei Moskalev’s work is distinguished by his masterful use of light, color, and texture. Trained at the prestigious Penza Art College in Russia and a member of both the UNESCO International Federation of Artists and the Association of Professional Artists of Israel, Moskalev brings decades of classical training to his contemporary vision. His Venice series captures gondolas, the Grand Canal, St. Mark’s Square, and Santa Maria della Salute with an emotional depth that transforms familiar scenes into deeply personal experiences.
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.
This original painting is available for purchase through Basha Art Gallery with worldwide shipping. Each work comes with a certificate of authenticity. For inquiries about this piece or to commission a similar work, contact us directly.
