460. WATER LILIES (NYMPHAEAS) D.A. LISHCHENKO, 1925

The painting “Water Lilies (Nymphaeas)” by D.A. Lishchenko, created in 1925, is a refined and poetic reflection of nature’s harmony. The composition unfolds on the calm surface of a pond, where in the sunlight, pure white water lily buds bloom, surrounded by large emerald-green leaves. The artist masterfully conveys the shimmering shades of blue and turquoise of the water’s surface, softly reflecting the sky. The textured, impasto technique creates a tangible feel to the petals and foliage, enhancing the sense of presence. The painting is set in a massive gilded frame with rich stucco ornamentation, emphasizing the work’s classical aesthetics. In the lower left corner the author’s signature “Lishchenko D.A.”, and in the lower right the number “25”, indicating the year of creation.
