One of the notable works of the Honored Artist Vajiha Samadova (1924-1965) is the painting ‘On the Shore of the Kura River.’ This artwork features a complex composition and deep artistic expression, representing the pinnacle of the artists creative journey. It showcases her exceptional skills as a colorist and her mastery of composition, highlighting the uniqueness of her style. The painting is succinct yet conveys a compelling story, resembling a single frame from a movie with a clear beginning and end. It depicts girls bathing in the river after washing clothes; one girl is still in the water, while the other is already dressed and drying her hair. The lyrical atmosphere of the sunset is enhanced by the river and the shimmering reflection of the moon on its surface.
