More about this artwork

The painting depicts an elderly man, exuding warmth and contentment. He wears a well-tailored dark coat over a vest and a crisp white shirt. A white cap rests gently on his head, framing his face which is adorned with a full, neatly trimmed beard and mustache that are both gray. His eyes twinkle with a subtle sparkle, suggesting a jovial disposition. He stands in front of a pale blue backdrop that's streaked with vertical drips of darker blue, perhaps evoking a rustic or workshop setting. In his left hand, he holds a wooden stick or a tool, reinforcing the identity of his profession as a carpenter. His right hand is engaged in an activity involving a wooden box on a table in front of him, possibly inspecting or feeling the texture of the wood. The overall impression is one of a joyful craftsman proud of his work and enjoying his trade.

Artist

Serghei Ghetiu, a Moldovan-born artist who now lives in Klaipėda, Lithuania, has a place of honour in our gallery among the most popular realists.

Although the artist himself says that he does not want to stick to one genre, he is interested in capturing different things on canvas, and lately his work has been dominated by portraits, and most of the time we see women and dancers. Through their poses, facial expressions and looks, the author tries to convey an emotional state, a feeling, what is going on inside a person. In Serghei Ghetiu's work, realism does not mean a cold, mechanical replication of reality at all - on the contrary, it is perfectly suited for capturing the slightest flicker of a face, the smallest nuance. Although the author loves details, he does not play with them or overload his paintings. You will notice that the details are usually mostly in the human face, in the dramatically falling folds of the garment, while for the background, the artist chooses a more expressive, looser technique - this combination not only helps to convey the mood even better, but also does not tire the eye, and helps to bring out the highlights.

This combination of realistic and free painting makes Serghei Ghetiu's work look great in both contemporary and classical interiors.
