3 months ago A lush impasto oil painting inspired by Anna Karenina, depicting the grand ballroom scene where Anna dances with Vronsky for the first time. In the style of John Singer Sargent, the composition is full of elegance and drama. Anna wears a flowing black satin gown with delicate lace details, her dark hair pinned up with jeweled ornaments. The ballroom glows with golden chandeliers, soft candlelight reflecting off mirrors and polished marble. Thick, textured brushstrokes capture the swirl of her dress, the rhythm of the waltz, and the unspoken tension between her and Vronsky. The background is alive with richly painted gowns, military uniforms, and blurred faces — society watching. Hues of gold, ivory, crimson, and midnight blue create a vibrant, emotional atmosphere. A painting full of romance, foreboding, and tragic beauty. Morgue PRO 0 41
