Vilnius And Woman of Vilnius
More about this artwork
In this painting, there's a woman and a cityscape fused into one image. The woman's profile is clear. She has striking features: sharp cheekbones and a pointed nose. Her headpiece is intricate. It blends with a background that shows hints of buildings, possibly churches. They rise behind her like echoes. The colors are subdued, mostly creams and browns with splashes of red and blue. The texture is thick and layered, giving the painting depth. The artist, Česlovas Grigonis, chose an abstract style. It melds the figure with the architecture. Grigonis captured both the essence of Vilnius and its personification through the woman. It’s as if the city's history and her story are intertwined. The swirling patterns and the use of gold create a mystical, almost dreamlike atmosphere. It invites the viewer to look deeper and wonder about the stories embedded within. This style mirrors the complexity of both human and urban life. Each stroke and color choice adds to the narrative. It's both beautiful and thought-provoking.

Česlovas Grigonis is an artist who paints cities and city dwellers like no one else, perfectly fusing fantasy and reality. Č. Grigonis's cities often merge several different parts of Vilnius Old Town into one square or street, and sometimes it is hard to tell whether it is Vilnius or another European capital. Towers, ship masts, familiar façades drown in a whirlpool of expressive brushstrokes, now emerging, now disappearing. The human figures we recognise are highly stylised, intertwined with decorative patterns and ornaments, and sometimes, on closer inspection, reveal themselves to be extraterrestrial beings. This creates more mystery in the works and leaves more room for interpretation by the audience.
The artist always tries to maintain a warm, cosy and uplifting mood in his work, and his clients are delighted when this mood is transferred to their homes. His highly characteristic and recognisable paintings leave no one indifferent to his work. His work has been purchased by many people not only from Lithuania, but also from all over the world - many from the USA, Germany, Poland, Russia and Australia.
