Any negotiations are meaningless; the aggressor can only be stopped and erased. Otherwise, it will advance further, consuming everything—like a single rotten fruit that spoils the entire crate. The pin has already been pulled, yet Ukraine still holds the grenade.A striking allegory of fragility and power, this painting depicts a woman in white robes and chainmail, holding a grenade shaped like our planet. Her mirrored sunglasses conceal emotion, leaving her role ambiguous—protector or catalyst. The burning horizon intensifies the urgency, while the serenity of her pose evokes timeless strength. Dutch acrylic paints Amsterdam tm and Italian canvas by Unico were used. The finish is satin varnish, and the edges are painted in the background color. This painting is created on a pre-stretched canvas on a wooden frame. It is carefully packed in a cardboard box with layers of bubble wrap. The artwork is signed and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
