Echoes from Hollywood to Kyiv: Marylin Print

I can't even fathom the extent of the madness of men whose life paths briefly intersected with Marilyn Monroe's. Every time I started working on the painting, I found myself lingering over the original photo, thinking, 'OH MY GOD, SHE IS JUST PERFECT. how is it even possible to resist such a level of femininity and seductiveness.' Marilyn is an ideal candidate to showcase the essence of Ukrainian attire. Her beauty transcends time and culture, making her a perfect canvas for incorporating Ukrainian elements. Marilyn's neckline is adorned with a traditional Ukrainian necklace – a sylianka, and it's no coincidence! This is exactly the same sylianka worn by Lesya Ukrainka, the renowned Ukrainian poet, who posed in it for her most famous photograph. On her shoulders, she wears a Carpathian blanket named "lizhnyk"with traditional patterns! In her hair, a wreath made of live flowers and wheat spikes (for this temptress, I didn't even consider any scarves or headgear). Having such a unique painting at home is a testament to appreciating the timeless beauty of Marilyn Monroe and celebrating the cultural heritage of Ukraine. It serves as a captivating blend of international allure and Ukrainian charm, bringing a piece of Old Hollywood into the heart of Ukrainian traditions. Marilyn becomes a symbol of the universal appeal of beauty and the enduring legacy of Ukrainian culture, making the artwork a truly distinctive and valuable addition to any home.
