This picture and story continues "the Black sea", the second title is "the Black sea storm starts to be played". Here the storm has already erupted in full force. We see a black stormy sky, with his artist and began to paint. And underneath – amazingly transparent in the foreground, converging in the depths of the canvas sea. "Among the waves" benefit "of the waves by Aivazovsky". It is a wave with whitecaps of foam, translucent wave, obtained by the glaze. These waves make up the plot of this film – transparent, with a light colour ranging from greyish-green to silvery blue depending on the lighting, as if the painter decided not to be distracted by anything else and just let loose and portraying him so well odusina waves. "Lighting" – in this case about a ray of sunshine bursting from behind storm clouds. The beam or its reflections we find in any picture Aivazovsky (in some cases it will be lunarand not sunlight)
