Contemporary Figurative Hummingbird Giclee by Slava Ilyayev

This contemporary artwork features two iridescent hummingbirds facing one another, their bodies and long tail feathers skillfully arranged to form a symmetrical heart shape. The birds are rendered with vibrant jewel tones, including emerald greens, sapphires, and golden yellows, against a soft, atmospheric background of pastel pinks, purples, and blues that suggest a sunrise or sunset. The piece is housed in a substantial, ornate black frame with a deep profile and decorative beaded inner trim, separated from the image by a crisp white mat. The artwork appears to be a mixed media Giclee or original painting on canvas, characterized by heavy impasto-like texture typical of the artist's palette knife technique. In the lower right corner, a prominent artist's signature is visible. The condition appears excellent with no visible signs of foxing, fading, or damage to the frame. The style is modern romanticism, likely produced within the last 10-15 years, intended for high-end gallery display. The craftsmanship is evident in the bold brushwork and the dynamic interaction of light and color within the birds' plumage.
