More about this artwork

This painting, titled "Old Vilnius" by Sigitas Faraponis, captures a charming street scene. The view leads you down a narrow street lined with old, colorful buildings. They seem to have high, pointed rooftops and arched windows. These buildings are painted in muted tones with dashes of brighter colors like red and yellow.The path appears cobblestoned, adding a rustic touch to the scene. The perspective draws the eye towards a vanishing point in the distance, suggesting depth.Sigitas Faraponis uses a somewhat abstract style. It's not too detailed, but it conveys the essence and atmosphere of the location vividly. The brushstrokes are visible and add texture to the painting. He has outlined the buildings and the street in a bold manner, which gives a dynamic contrast to the softer fill colors.Overall, the style feels expressive and slightly impressionistic. It's clear that Faraponis wants to evoke a sense of nostalgia and timeless beauty associated with Vilnius's old architecture. His technique skillfully balances realism with artistic interpretation.
