What can you see in this art? 

The painting titled "Crusade – Blood of the Ocean" presents a highly evocative and mysterious scene, rich in symbolism. The dominant element in this oil artwork is the bright, intensely golden sky that floods the entire space with its supernatural glow. In the center, we see a group of figures moving toward an unclear destination in the distance. Accompanying them is a massive, dark structure, resembling a fortress or castle, shrouded in a delicate mist. Above this structure shines a cross, glowing against the golden sky, adding a spiritual or religious dimension to the scene.

The lower part of the painting reveals an ocean with blood-red waves, intensifying the unsettling mood. The red, blood-like waters sharply contrast with the sky, heightening the dramatic tone of the scene. The painting seems to depict a journey or a crusade—perhaps in both a literal and metaphorical sense—where the cross represents faith, and the blood of the ocean hints at sacrifice and loss. The figures appear to be silent witnesses, moving toward an unknown fate, amplifying the painting's sense of mystery and emotional weight.

The use of colors—primarily yellows and reds—enhances the feeling of dread, tension, and impending catastrophe. Together with the vivid symbols of the cross and the blood-stained ocean, it weaves a poignant story of struggle, suffering, and spiritual pursuit.
