“The Arrival,” created by Salman Toor in 2019, is an oil on panel figurative artwork measuring 45.7 x 35.2 cm.
The artwork presents a poignant scene featuring two figures, one of whom appears fatigued, leaning against a door frame while the other figure reaches towards the door handle, seemingly welcoming or preparing to open the door for the first figure. The artist’s use of expressive brushstrokes and a muted color palette enhances the emotional depth of the moment, capturing an intimate narrative of interaction and connection. The detailed rendering of the figures’ attire and the textured background adds to the realism of the scene, while the overall composition maintains a delicate balance between detail and abstraction.
