A large jester figure leans over an arched bridge, guiding thin strings down towards the canal in “Venice romance” by Mariya Yugina. A red hat with long, curved points and a costume patterned with coloured diamonds give the figure a theatrical presence. Beneath the bridge, a long, dark gondola glides through turquoise-blue water with a chessboard and pieces on board.
A masked woman in a yellow dress sits in the gondola, holding a slender glass aloft. In the lower right, another masked figure emerges behind a pale wall. Yellow, orange and pink façades surround the canal, while a slender bell tower rises in the background. The architecture tilts and shifts around the bridge’s broad arch, with cool blue and green fields creating depth between the warm buildings.
The subject brings Venetian carnival, chess and puppet theatre together in an imaginative scene. The strings may invite questions about who controls the game, while the masked figures leave their roles and relationships unresolved. The vertical 70 × 100 cm format leads the eye from the high points of the jester’s hat down through the bridge to the gondola and the canal below.
