After 15 years

"Mother Sisters"

Without stopping at anything, Moiseyenko's next goal was to set himself a portrait. And not an easy portrait, but an image of a Russian woman, with her characteristic strength of spirit and courage. As a result, a new work by the artist "Mother Sisters" was published. Yevsei Yevseyevich Moiseyenko again turns to memories of women, who saw off their children and husbands to the war, and about their own mother. The main idea of the work was the tragedy of farewell, and everything in the picture points to sorrow: long figures occupying almost the entire canvas, and strict faces that watch their relatives, immovable and silent, go to their deaths.
