The artwork "Erevan - Sevan" is a black-and-white photograph capturing a stark and minimalist scene. The point of view is directly facing a weathered, simple structure made of stone. The horizon is low, emphasizing the expansive, flat landscape that stretches into the distance. The structure has a rectangular shape with arched openings, and there is a person standing beneath it holding an umbrella. The ground close to us is wet, reflecting light. The overall color palette is monochromatic, with a range of grays. The composition is balanced, with the structure centered.
