Hortus 2015

"Hortus" (2015) by Andrey Remnev is a captivating portrait of two young girls standing in a garden setting. The girls are dressed in elegant, burgundy dresses adorned with delicate white dots and rows of green bows. One girl holds a silver watering can, while the other reaches towards a tent in the background. The work evokes a sense of innocence and playfulness, while the subtle details and meticulous brushwork demonstrate Remnev's mastery of realism. The title, which translates to "garden" in Latin, further emphasizes the natural setting and the girls' connection to the outdoors.
