Karelia. Petrozavodsk 1967

"Karelia. Petrozavodsk" is a watercolor painting by Petros Malayan from 1967. The painting depicts a solitary figure standing on a rock in a serene, coastal setting. The pale blue waters of the lake are punctuated by a small boat, while the distant horizon is dominated by a shipyard and cranes. Malayan's work often focused on the landscapes and people of the Karelia region, where he was born and raised. This piece captures the quiet beauty of the region and the contemplative nature of its inhabitants.
