Every Year Ends 2009

"Every Year Ends" is a 2009 oil on canvas painting by Lu Cong (b. 1978), known for his hyperrealistic style and often somber subject matter. The painting features a young woman with a contemplative expression, dressed in a black dress against a cityscape background. This piece exemplifies the artist's signature realistic technique, highlighting the subtle details and textures of the subject. The woman's melancholic pose and the muted tones of the background contribute to the overall mood of contemplation and introspective thought, characteristic of Lu Cong's work.
