Description
In “My Love Letter to Venice 013”, Sergei Moskalev captures the essence of Venice through rich blues, warm golds, and fluid reflections that mirror the city’s watery soul. This original work, created in oil and gold leaf on canvas and measuring 40×50 cm | 16×20 in, belongs to the My Love Letter to Venice series — one of the artist’s most acclaimed collections.
“Venice is a city defined by color and light. The water mirrors the sky, façades glow with warmth, and every reflection tells a new story. When I paint Venice, I follow the way light interacts with the city. The subtle shifts, the surprises, the play of hues across surfaces, trying to capture its energy, its grace, and the magic that lingers in every moment.” — 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 Venice paintings are celebrated for their emotional resonance — each canvas capturing not just the appearance of gondolas, the Grand Canal, St. Mark’s Square, and Santa Maria della Salute, 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.
