Painting Overview
Imagine people celebrating at that table all night. Did it work?
To be honest, I don’t really get it. But they do!
If you pay close attention to the details, it is sure to confuse you.
There’s something wrong with this world. Gravity is selective. By some mysterious law of its own.
The aesthetics of serving and serving are also very distinctive.
And the selection of objects is not random. You will easily find on the table or under the table anything from steaming kebabs to a tattered harmonica.
I’ve clearly defined the geography of this place for myself, and you can define it for yourselves. The mood and the state of the environment.
That’s what I was trying to convey to you.
And even the fact that I publish this work on January 1 is not accidental either.
Are you confused about the price? Me too, admittedly.
But I assure you, this painting is worth the money. The time, labor and creativity invested in this painting cannot be measured in money. There’s a big piece of me left inside. It’s priceless.
Discussions Surrounding this Oil Painting
Irina Chukomina, 18-11-2023
It’s like “Russian Table. Meaningless and Thoughtless.” The tableware is in a state of levitation. Harmony and disharmony, it seems, have already left their own. The participants of the meal, I would say, are in emigration. The first wave of emigration has left with their own samovars. Directly with their own samovars in a foreign monastery and went away.

A casual viewer might see this painting's surface image and simply be struck by the atmosphere and the curiosity of a beautiful instrument standing alone in the harsh cold. They might wonder how it came to be there, and maybe they'd find it a little sad, a little lonely. But, as always, Igor S…
