Three women gather around a small chess table in “One passion for 3” by Mariya Yugina. On the left, a red-haired woman rests her cheek in her hand, while a blonde woman sits behind the table with her arms raised towards her head. On the right, a dark-haired woman in a green-striped dress holds one hand above the chessboard. Their lowered gazes draw attention towards the game.
Green and turquoise recur in the dresses, chessboard and large curtains framing the scene. These cool colours meet warm orange, red and yellow fields in the room and the figures’ skin. Violet folds around the central figure and golden-yellow glasses and a jug on the right introduce further contrasts. Angular features, elongated arms and shifting perspectives give the subject a stylised, theatrical quality.
The title may suggest chess as a shared passion, while the women’s differing poses invite stories of concentration, waiting and companionship. The few pieces on the board leave the next move unresolved. The horizontal 100 × 73 cm format provides room for both the figures’ gestures and the colourful details of the interior.
