Lisa Ray - Starfall

In the center of the composition is the figure of Peter the Great, personifying Russia's aspiration for progress and modernization. The monument standing on a huge crystal emphasizes his importance as a historical figure and symbolizes the uniqueness of his contribution to the country's history. The crystal acts as a metaphor for rarity and value, making the figure of Peter the Great a "nugget" in history.

The dynamics of the event in the painting are represented in the moment when Peter catches the falling star with his hand, which symbolizes dreams, hopes and ambitions that aspire to be realized. Here we can see the idea that great personalities are able to boldly strive for their goals and catch luck. This image reminds everyone that great achievements are possible for those who are willing to strive for them.
