This painting by Viktor Konotopsky, inspired by the iconic Art Deco style of Tamara de Lempicka, captures the timeless and universal theme of human connection and temptation. The two intertwined figures, representing Adam and Eve, are depicted in a moment of intimate, emotional connection, their forms accentuated by strong, sculptural lines and bold, geometric shadows reminiscent of Lempicka's signature approach. The warm, golden hues of their bodies contrast sharply with the cool, angular cityscape in the background, symbolizing the conflict between innocence and worldly temptation. The apple in the woman's hand serves as a powerful symbol of knowledge, choice, and the beginning of human consciousness, echoing the Biblical story of the Fall. The painting expresses the passion and complexity of human relationships, capturing the intensity of physical and emotional connection while reflecting on the timeless struggle between innocence and experience, a theme deeply rooted in Western art and literature.

This seller rewards your purchases of multiple artworks
Viktor Konotopsky was born in 1967 in the village of Maleshkovka, Nedrigailovsky district, Sumy region.
Graduated from the Kharkiv State Art School and the Faculty of Arts of the Saratov State Pedagogical University named after Makarenko.
Worked as a drawing and drafting teacher, and an artist in the advertising field.
In the 90s, he lived and worked in Poland (Krakow and Szczecin) and St. Petersburg.
Viktor had many temptations to catch some fashionable artistic disease, but he remained himself.
Judging his painting by the standards of world artistic fashion is as absurd as declaring love with the memorized words of a popular literary hero. In this sense, it is naive, but the naivety of a professionally educated person. His paintings are realistic, although stylized. The landscapes are easily recognizable, but they contain a generalization leading to an image.
