Koncha Zaspa period

Description

Painting dates 1990. It is interesting to find that the painted area is very alike to the view from the park of Peoples' Friendship from Dnipro river side on highway at twilights. It's time when the sun has not set down yet behind the Pechersk hills though the car lights have already been turned on. But in 1990 Zaretsky didn't leave Koncha-Zaspa no longer. Thus we suppose that the painting was drawn by memories and impression. It is interesting that the Riverside highway turns to the Koncha-Zaspa highway. It means that the view from the painting and the residence of Zaretsky are connected by straight way.

The work is signed from the other side.
