The picture “The Ninth Wave» by Aivazovsky shows the sea after a violently strong night storm and people who suffered a storm, eager to survive and get on land. After such a shipwreck, you begin to understand how scary it is to live, how many problems can surround you, but none can compare with the one that is on a par with your life.

People are trying to escape with the help of wooden beams that have come off the ship. It is not clear where the others are: either they have already been saved, or they died and the sea took them into a new, unknown sea life. At such moments, you especially begin to appreciate life and it all flashes before your eyes in a matter of minutes.

Aivazovsky has an amazing ability to convey the naturalness of the nature of the sea. Having looked closely at the canvas, you are ready to plunge into it, to be in the place of those people who are trying to survive, to live not only their lives, but also in those times when the artist worked.

What splendor of the undulating sea was conveyed by Ivan Konstantinovich. The upper part is painted in pink and red tones — an alarming rising sun after a stormy night, shrouded in gray gloomy clouds.

The lower part is painted in darker tones — emerald and ash. Water after a storm changes color like a person’s mood. She is dirty, muddy, as if offended by life. No wonder they say that you can look at the water forever.

The power of the painting is breathtaking and a symbol of human courage. And only for a minute you imagine that you are in this raging element and you are seized by a shiver in your body and you understand how weak and vulnerable you are in this world, you realize that all your troubles are insignificant in comparison with this destructive force. Water is the mirror of the soul.

The painting of Ivan Konstantinovich is so bewitching and enchanting, but at the same time terrifying by the actions of nature.

With his work, the artist wanted to show us that there is a sense in the struggle for our lives, that no problem should lead us into a stupor and everything in life is solvable, only a person’s will to salvation and a solution to this or that problem is needed.

Anyone who has a restless heart can be advised to look at this picture in order to realize the vanity of this world and all problems will recede into the background.
