Oh, what a wonderful artist we have today! Evgeniy Monahov (1974). Observing his “Ophelia” (the first in the series, evidently inspired by John Everett Millais), an intriguing notion struck me — how captivating it would be to reimagine any renowned painting from a slightly altered perspective while preserving its distinctiveness? I have yet to encounter such an approach. What captivates me about Evgeniy’s artworks is their profound significance; they invariably portray a brilliantly orchestrated scene, crowned by his exceptional technique. Indeed, as the saying goes, when a portrait is more than merely a portrait.
