About this work
Looking across a cluster of flattened rooftops toward St. Isaac's dome and colonnade, the scene reduces the cathedral to a few pencil-thin outlines among pale geometric planes. A near-black trapezoidal roof dominates the upper right, its solid darkness set against bleached cream walls; windows, cornices and a lamppost survive only as scratched pastel lines, with one streak of orange breaking the hush.
The palette stays almost within a single cream-to-oatmeal range, broken only by that black mass and a thin ochre accent, giving the surface a scraped, sanded quality under loose pastel drawing. Light is flat and diffuse, and the half-erased linework leaves the architecture feeling recalled from memory rather than observed directly, quiet and contemplative overall.
