“Landscape under the bridge” is a vivid plein-air painting that captures a historical moment of Gdańsk’s urban landscape. The work depicts the Siennicki Bridge and the Motława River just before the bridge’s major reconstruction, serving as a painterly document of the city’s changing face.
The painting is filled with the shimmering, vibrating light of a “golden” Polish autumn. The artist masterfully conveys the atmospheric transition of the season through a rich palette of warm oranges and yellows, contrasted by the cool reflections in the water. Created directly from nature, the work breathes with spontaneity and life, inviting the viewer into a space of quiet observation. This is a unique work, signed by the artist.
