The picture shows an orange-coloured lifebuoy attached to a rough stone wall. The ring shows visible signs of use, including scratches and slight colour chipping, which give it an authentic, functional character.
The stone wall consists of irregularly shaped natural stones in various shades of grey, embedded in grey mortar. Its surface is rough and textured, creating an exciting contrast to the smooth, round shape of the lifebuoy. The thin fastening rope is threaded through several holes in the ring and provides additional visual detail.
The scene is reminiscent of maritime environments such as harbours, lakes or riverbanks, where lifebuoys are permanently installed as a safety measure. The composition conveys themes such as protection, safety and durability.
The colour scheme is clear and effective: the vibrant orange of the lifebuoy stands out clearly against the muted natural tones of the wall. This visual tension makes the picture a strong design element for interiors, exhibitions or themed presentations in the areas of water, safety or architecture.
The work appeals to people who are interested in maritime motifs, urban structures and symbolic imagery. It combines functionality with aesthetic clarity.
