Afterglow

Norwegian-born artist Jonas Lie received great acclaim for his luminous renderings of New York City. Afterglow is a stunning work of art that reflects Lie's exceptional talent for capturing the natural world in all its glory.

The painting depicts a tranquil city scene bathed in the warm, ethereal light of twilight. The sun has just dipped below the horizon, leaving behind a vivid display of colors that dance across the sky. The gentle ripples on the water's surface convey a sense of serenity and stillness, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the moment.

Lie's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, from the delicate rendering of the clouds with skyscrapers of Manhattan to the precise depiction of the shoreline. The composition is harmonious, drawing the viewer's eye into the heart of the scene, where the afterglow of the setting sun is at its most intense.

What makes "Afterglow" particularly noteworthy is Lie's ability to convey a sense of awe and wonderment in the face of nature's and the city's beauty. He invites us to pause and contemplate the fleeting beauty of the natural world, encouraging a deeper connection with our environment.
