Movement, transition, descents and ascents are the main motives of all works of Elena Rufova.
In the painting "Bridge" a small figure of a man, walking across the bridge, stubbornly and calmly overcomes the elements of surging rivers, earth, sky. In this painting we see how the artist uses a minimum of realistic images, but at the same time creates a visible image of the tense struggle of earth, sky, water with a confident the will of man. Acquainted with such pictures of Elena Rufova, as "St.Basil the Blessed", "In the mirror of history. Palace of Alexei Mikhailovich", "Bunches of Love" and many others, in including those named here, we can say that confidence the hero is given by his belief in the divine origin of the earthly life.
