Work from the cycle "Roman Imaginations" was performed by me nearly 20 years ago. The picture was created especially for my exhibition "Northern Venice" which was taking place in St. Petersburg in Academy of Arts. Since then there passed a lot of time, the picture disappeared somewhere... Sorting old folders in a workshop about a year ago I found it.
The picture is executed on Fabriano's paper, in work the graphite pencil and ink are used.
It was the first picture from the cycle "Roman Imaginations". On its creation I was inspired by works of Piranezi and Gonzago which still studying in Academy of Arts I many times copied. The arcade and a ladder leaving to the horizon are the bible prospect which is almost carrying away into the sky.

Andrei Svistunov is a contemporary artist born in St. Petersburg, Russia, who currently lives and works in Berlin, Germany. Trained as an architect, Svistunov brings a deep understanding of architectural forms and classical principles to his artistic practice. His graphic works are known for their metaphorical depth, diversity, and precise mastery of materials.

Svistunov's art is deeply rooted in the classical orders of architecture and academic traditions but transcends the boundaries of his profession. His works often draw on themes from antiquity and revival, reflecting a world where Renaissance theater scenery, phantasmagoric masks from San Marco, and biblical imagery intermingle.

A significant influence on Svistunov's work was Mikhail Filippov, a renowned watercolorist and architect, who provided him with invaluable lessons in watercolor technique. Svistunov considers Filippov both a mentor and an inspiration.

During his studies at the Imperial Academy of Arts in St. Petersburg, Svistunov participated in a summer session at the School of Prince Charles. After completing his studies, he worked in Filippov's architectural workshop before embarking on an independent artistic career.

Over the past two decades, Svistunov has maintained his dual roles as an architect and artist, with his art serving as a reflection of his inner thoughts and contemplations about what could be. His work captures the fleeting essence of forms and architectural perspectives, revealing a world of both tangible and intangible elements.
