RUSSIAN PAINTERS IN THE WINTER

In 1975, this painting was exhibited in the halls of the Union of Artists of Leningrad. In 1994, it was exhibited in France. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1u3fCIZ_LTE Russian winter, it is a painting of the Soviet Russian painter Nikolai Efimovich Timkov. Looking at this medium-sized painting (100 x 150 cm), you too can easily imagine a cold winter day, in a small village in the Tver region. In the foreground, the Msta River, next to the water a group of poplars, in the background the village of Valentinovka. The artist knows these places, where he worked for thirty years.timkov_winter_1-1

Konstantin Veshchilov loved to paint the colors of the afternoon light in winter, while Konstantin Gorbatov favored winter landscapes with churches. To imagine the Russian winter landscapes, you can observe the winter mornings by Igor Grabar, or a winter evening of Nikolai Krymov. Today keeps falling snow on Moscow, and as always the city becomes enveloped by a thick white blanket. Those white cloaks were painted over the centuries by many Russian painters such as Ivan Shishkin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HB9cQogAcvc and Valentin Alexandrovich Serov, Natalia Sergeyevna Goncharova, Sergei Ivanovich Osipov and Victor Popkov.logo-meeting-benches
