The film by V.A. Gusev is dedicated to the 1860s - one of the most interesting, controversial and extremely important periods in the history of Russia and Russian art. The essence of this time is determined by the pathos of denunciation and direct criticism by artists of the surrounding reality. Unusual responsiveness to pressing issues of social life, intolerance to evil, sincerity in expressing one's ideas, consonant with the mood of the artistic intelligentsia of Russia at that time, make the art of the "sixties" an extremely significant phenomenon.
Continuing our acquaintance with the cultural heritage of the Northern capital, we decided to head to the State Russian Museum....
We note right away that this brand unites five buildings - the Mikhailovsky Palace with the Benois Wing, the Marble Palace, the Mikhailovsky (Engineering) Castle, the Summer Palace of Peter I , the Stroganov Palace and several park areas, including the Summer Garden and the Mikhailovsky Garden....
In this case, we will talk about the main building of this museum complex - the Mikhailovsky Palace with the Benois exhibition building, which is located at Inzhenernaya st. d.4...
The history of the world's largest museum of Russian art originates from the Named Imperial Decree of Nicholas II "On the establishment of a special institution called the Russian Museum of Emperor Alexander III "and on the provision for this purpose of the Mikhailovsky Palace acquired to the treasury with all the outbuildings, services and gardens belonging to it," signed in April 1895 ...

Strange as it may seem, the main increase in the museum's collection was after 1917... This is primarily due to the nationalization of private property, which fully affected numerous collectors...
At present, according to official sources, the museum's collection consists of 408 thousand exhibits, which we will get to know today...
Our acquaintance begins with the lobby of the main building.... We go up the wide front staircase to the second floor....

and numerous sculptures.
In the corner is a model of the monument to the famous historiographer N.M. Karamzin, made by S.I. Galberg for Simbirsk...
In order not to get lost in the numerous halls of the museum, we carefully study its plan
and head to the first hall, which presents icons of the 12th-13th centuries...
Here we can get acquainted with the works of various icon-painting schools: Moscow, Novgorod, Pskov, etc...
Here, for example, we have a fresco "Prophet Samuel" (1112) from St. Michael's Golden-Domed Monastery in Kyiv....

Before us is one of his famous works - a portrait of Princess Natalya Alekseevna. (1716)...
Also during this period, the art of sculpture began to develop rapidly .... The largest master of this period is B.K. Rastrelli. Therefore, it is no coincidence that in this hall there is a cast-iron bust of Peter I, cast in the author's form in 1810...

And here is his other work - "Wonderful Catch", which he made in Paris during an internship .... The painting of the same name by J. Jouvenet (kept in the Louvre) was taken as the basis ....

The White Hall is one of the few rooms in the palace that has retained its original decoration to this day...
From the White Hall we get to the exhibition of works by V. L. Borovikovsky, a recognized master of portraiture....
However, the artist prefers chamber portraits, in which, in his opinion, it is possible to convey the variety of innermost feelings and experiences of the depicted person...
In the same hall, armchairs from a furniture set for the Karamzin living room of the Mikhailovsky Palace, designed by K.I. Russia......
Well, now we get into hall number 14 .... Remember these numbers. In our opinion, this is one of the best halls of the museum in terms of the paintings presented in it.
The famous works of Aivazovsky and Bryullov are exhibited here...
Let's start with the works of I.K. Aivazovsky - the world-famous Russian marine painter ...
Before us is one of his famous paintings of his "The Ninth Wave" .... People were shipwrecked after a severe storm and are trying to escape on the wreckage of the mast, but the biggest wave is ready to fall on them - the ninth wave ...
The size of the picture is 221x332 cm, and therefore it is better to look at it comfortably sitting on a soft sofa, standing in the center of the hall....
But to see how clearly all the details are drawn, you have to use the optics of the camera...
The next painting by Aivazovsky, which we see in this room - "Wave" (1889)...
In the last years of his life, Aivazovsky was completely absorbed in creating the image of the sea element. Many of his paintings of this period are essentially a variant of the same plot, but nevertheless, each of them has something special, individual...
Picture details....
Here we can also find earlier works by the master, for example, "Russian squadron in the Sevastopol roadstead" (1846) ..

Of course, it’s good to sit, but the museum does not end in this hall .... So we continue to explore further ...
In the next room, we offer to our attention the works of professors of the Academy of Arts of the first half of the 19th century...
Among the presented exhibits, the work of A.A. Ivanov "The Appearance of Christ to the People"
This is a kind of reporting work of the author for the state pension in Italy ...
The plot of the picture is based on the events from the 3rd chapter of the Gospel of Matthew ...

By the way, in this hall, as well as in the previous one, you can get acquainted with the closed (in the truest sense of the word) exposition... If you paid attention, there are small tables covered with velvet along the walls of the hall... So, if you lift this rag , then under it you will see various sketches, drawings of famous masters from private collections ... Many visitors do not know about this and pass by ... And they close all this from prying eyes with only one purpose - so as not to take pictures ... It’s worth it to you just lift the curtain - the caretaker of the hall in the pose of an attacking cobra will relentlessly follow your movements ...

Paintings "Peeling the Beets" (1820),
"Reaper" (1826) and
"Fortune-telling on the cards" (1842) is a vivid confirmation of the above....
At the window we see the project of the tombstone of the monument to M.I. Kozlovsky by S.S. Pimenov (1802)...
We get acquainted with the work of Vasily Grigorievich Perov in the next room....
We see the plot relevant to the present time in his work "Hunters at Rest" (1877)...
The procedure of the monastery dinner is reflected in all details by Perov in his work "Meal" (1865)...
The aspirations of a lonely man, his thoughts, problems and ways to solve them are reflected in the painting "Guitar-player" (1865)...
Before us are the works of the famous landscape painter - I.I. Shishkin...
"Pine Forest" (1883),
"Forest (Shmetsk near Narva)" (1888)...,
"Ship Grove" ....
In the neighborhood with Shishkin, we see the works of M.K. Klodt - masters of realistic landscapes of the Russian village.....
Here is one of his works - "A herd by the river at noon" (1869)....
The "gaps" between the paintings are filled with the works of E.A. Lansere - Russian sculptor-animalist...
All his life he was fascinated by horses, so it is no coincidence that these animals are present in many of his creations....
Before us is the ebb of the bronze "Arab with lion cubs" (1879)....
In the second half of the 19th century, the neo-Greek style became popular in painting, which is expressed in the form of spectacular multi-figure spectacles, bloody dramas, etc.
This is exactly what we had to face in the next hall of the museum...
Picture G.I. Semiradsky "Phryna at the festival of Poseidon in Eleusis" (1889) is a vivid example of this trend in art...
From the same "series" and full of dramatic expression, the painting by K.D. Flavitsky "Christian martyrs in the Colosseum" (1862)....
On the way to the next room, we again come across the work of E.A. Lansere - "Kyrgyz shoal on vacation" (1880)...
After some time, we find ourselves in the "captivity" of the Russian folk epic .... And all this thanks to the fairy-tale battle works of V.M. Vasnetsov:
- "Battle of the Scythians with the Slavs" (1882)
and "The Knight at the Crossroads" (1882)...
We are going to get acquainted with the work of our next famous artist - V.I. Surikov...
Slowly we pass by "Stepan Razin" ....
We linger a bit at the painting "Salome brings the head of John the Baptist to her mother Herodias" (1872) (it is not so often to see a head on a tray...)
and stop at the canvas "View of the monument to Peter I on the Senate Square in St. Petersburg" (1870)
We pass to the next hall - here is the continuation of Surikov's exposition....
We sit comfortably on the sofa so that we can slowly, in silence, admire "Suvorov's Crossing the Alps" and "Ermak's Conquest of Siberia"
but then a gang of Nakhimovites appeared from somewhere ....
We had to hurriedly retreat to another hall and we already examined the details of these paintings in the hotel through the camera ....
We did it in a timely manner, because in the next, small hall, a monumental painting by I.E. Repin with a "short" title "Ceremonial meeting of the State Council on May 7, 1901, on the day of the centennial anniversary of its establishment" (1903).
To fulfill this government order, the artist first individually painted 60 portraits of statesmen, and then, with the help of his students (B.M. Kustodiev and I.S. Kulikov), transferred them to a large canvas ...
Our acquaintance with Repin's work continues in the following rooms....
Painting "Seeing the recruit",
"Nicholas of Mirlikiy saves three innocently condemned from death" (1888),
"Barge haulers on the Volga" (1870),
"On a turf bench" (1876),
"Cossacks" (1880) - all this is only a small part of the works of the outstanding artist of his era, Ilya Efimovich Repin ...
The next room and in front of us are the works of not only a unique painter, but also a traveler, a man who relentlessly accompanied the Russian army in military operations in Japan, Central Asia and other "hot spots" - V.V. Vereshchagin...
The painting "At the door of the mosque" (1873) is one of the numerous works of the Turkestan series, reflecting the customs of the Central Asian states...
During one of his last travels, and it was Japan, Vereshchagin was struck by its monuments of classical culture, originality, originality of costumes...
The canvas "Japan. Shinto shrine in Nikko" (1904) was just written based on the impressions received....
By the way, when the Russo-Japanese War began, the artist rushed into the thick of things and tragically died on March 31, 1904, together with Vice Admiral Makarov, while on the flagship Petropavlovsk (the ship was blown up by a mine in the Port Arthur roadstead)...
Continuing our further journey through the Russian Museum, we find ourselves in a hall with works by I.I. Levitan - masters of "mood landscape"...
"Golden Autumn. Slobodka" (1889),
"Gloomy Day" (1895),
"Lake. Russia" (the main work of the late Levitan: the artist died, leaving it unfinished...),
"Early Spring" (1898)....
Of course, these are not his masterpieces like "March", "Golden Autumn" or a series of works about Plyos, but still ....
In the same hall we see the works of K.A. Korovin "Lilac" (1915),
and K.F. Bogaevsky "Ships. Evening sun"....
The next hall of the museum....
I.I. Brodsky "Portrait of the Artist's Wife" (1908),
A.N. Benois "Flora's Pool" ....
K.A.Somov and his most famous painting "Winter Skating Rink" (1915)... (According to experts in painting, this picture perfectly executed the landscape, which can really be seen in St. Petersburg in winter...)
Exposition of works by Andrey Petrovich Ryabushkin - a representative of the historical genre...
One of his best works: "Moscow street XVII century on a holiday "(1895),
"They are coming! (The people of Moscow during the entry of a foreign embassy into Moscow at the end XVII century)"
Somehow, obviously deep in thought and deeply immersed in art, we did not notice how we ended up in some kind of corridor ...
But even here the walls were not empty...
In addition to any advertising posters, there were also historical photographs (for example, this one is called "The war is over. The rise of the sculpture of B.K. Rastrelli "Anna Ioanovna with a black-haired child" from a hiding place in the Mikhailovsky Garden, 1945.")
and even sculptures that could not find a place in the main halls of the museum ("Alexander III "work by M.M. Antokolsky 1897)
Realizing that there was nothing more to see in the corridor, we returned to the main halls of the museum and ended up at an exhibition of works by A.I. Kuindzhi, one of the famous Russian landscape painters, a student of Aivazovsky...
"Sea. Crimea" (1898),
"Moonlit night on the Dnieper",
"Sunset"....
How great is this??? As they say, there are no comrades for taste and color ... Experts have their own opinion, but we, as people who are far from high matters, have a slightly different opinion: if you like a picture, then it is good, but look for strokes, nuances of mood in the canvas artist, his vision of what is happening is not for us .... Sorry if someone was offended ...
According to the plan - we are in room number 32 ...
Here sits thoughtfully "Spinoza" by M.M. Antokolsky...
Well, we are "captured" by V.D. Polenov - one of the outstanding Wanderers artists....
The central place in his exposition is occupied by the painting "Christ and the Sinner" (1888), in which he depicted a plot from the Gospel....
In order for everything to turn out realistically, Polenov had to visit Syria, Egypt, Palestine ...
Less large-scale works of the artist: "Sick" (1879),
And he returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit...
The next room presents the works of G.G. Myasoedov - "a bright representative of Russian realism of the second half of the 19th century, the founder of the Association of Traveling Art Exhibitions" (quote from Wikipedia)
All right. What is not realistic about his painting "The Passionate Time. Mowers"?
Here we can also see the works of K.A. Savitsky (the painting "To the War" - reflects the events associated with the beginning of the Russian-Turkish war of 1877),
and I.M. Pryanishnikov ("The procession"),
and K.E. Makovsky: ("The overnight house" 1889),
"Family portrait",
"People's festivities during Shrove Tuesday on Admiralteyskaya Square in St. Petersburg" (1869);
and H.P. Platonov "Naymichka", and N.P. Bogdanov-Belsky "At the door of the school" (1897)...
When moving to another building, we come across the works of M.M. Antokolsky "Ermak"
and "Tiger and Sinai" by A.L. Ober....
From the Mikhailovsky Palace we move to the Benois building ...
M.A. is "waiting" for us in the first hall of this building. Vrubel - "... one of the brilliant creators of Russian modernity, whose work is marked by high artistic skill and the desire to create works of great style. According to the master, art should "awaken the soul from the little things of everyday life with majestic images" (quote from the annotation to his work, posted in the exhibition hall)....
After such a "briefing" it's time to look at the paintings of the master...
Work "Bogatyr" (1898)....
Art connoisseurs call Vrubel the mysterious genius of painting...
His masterpiece is "Morning"....
"The atmosphere of mystery is also saturated with his painting" Flying Demon "..." (opinion of experts...)
Again, we are not experts. Maybe everything in Vrubel's works is mysterious, but for some reason they did not wake our "soul from everyday little things" ....
In the next hall of the museum, paintings by M.V. Nesterov...
Before proceeding with their inspection, we get acquainted with the opinion of professionals ...
"Mikhail Nesterov creates images of great spiritual power and significance. They are saturated with subtle lyricism, detached from earthly concerns, full of contemplation and religious reflection. The artist shows the complex spiritual life of his heroes, the richness of their intellectual and moral abilities, the harmonious coexistence of man and nature. Definition" Nesterovsky landscape" - peaceful, quiet, pale green - has entered the modern Russian lexicon".
Let's look at all this with the eyes of the layman ....
Painting "Great tonsure" (1898)...,
"Holy Russia" (1905),
"Reverend Sergius of Radonezh" (1899)...,
"Thoughts" (1900)...
In this case, oddly enough, but our opinion about Nesterov's work almost coincided with the opinions of experts ...
Hall number .... Already lost count ....
In general, this room housed the works of V.A. Serov...
"The largest Russian portraitist V.A. Serov created a brilliant pictorial gallery of his contemporaries, diverse in character and social status. In the second half of the 1880s - 1890s, he painted lyrical contemplative portraits using the techniques of impressionistic writing. The artist is objective and truthful in the image, careful in choosing a pose, gesture, turning the head of the model .... "
It's time to put it all into practice...
"Portrait of Princess Zinaida Nikolaevna Yusupova" (1902),
"Portrait of S.M. Botkina, wife of P.D. Botkin" (1899),
"Portrait of Princess O.K. Orlova" (1911)
And this is already a work from the "other opera" ....
Bathing horses...
In our opinion, after all, Serov's portraits look more attractive than the works of another genre (at least when compared with those paintings exhibited in the Russian Museum) ...
In the next room, we have the opportunity to get acquainted with the work of Boris Kustodiev...
"Portrait of F.I. Chaliapin" (1922) (The artist did this work already being paralyzed. He painted in parts, while the canvas was tilted over his chair)
"Merchant for tea" (1918)...
"Balagany" (1917)...
In the works of B.M. Kustodiev, for the most part, displays the originality of provincial life with its significant moments: bazaars, folk festivals, fairs, etc.
The next pair of halls (exhibition of works by B.D. Grigoriev, I.I. Mashkov) we examined quickly and fluently ...
Of course, when the number of halls examined exceeds the seventh dozen, one feels a certain tiredness, weariness, a desire to finish all this as soon as possible...
In our opinion, the organizers of the expositions, having obviously foreseen all these human factors, also met the visitors of the museum halfway: the closer to the exit, the softer and more cultured it would be to say... In general, the paintings become simpler in terms of the traditional perception of the surrounding reality.. .
Especially from the last exhibitions, we were heartily pleased with the direction in art called "primitivism" ...
Museum workers describe this direction as follows: "the involvement of Russian peasant art, urban folklore in the circle of current artistic traditions, a deep interest in the art of self-taught artists was almost ubiquitous in the 1910s. The conscious simplification of the art form did not have the character of imitation, but it was an attempt to give the images of the reality transformed by the artist that clarity, simplicity and at the same time semantic capacity, with which folk art was endowed by its nature ... "
Now let's see how it all looks....
For example, a series of paintings by M.F. Larionov (as he painted in his youth)....
And here is his later masterpiece - "Venus" .... (You will, of course, excuse us, but at the sight of this canvas, for some reason, indecently loud laughter burst out of us simultaneously. It's good that there were few visitors ...) Probably experts from painting at the sight of this work, they will take a thoughtful look, make a smart facial expression, after which for several tens of minutes, using professional slang, they will enthusiastically tell you that this is a true masterpiece...
In our unenlightened view, in kindergarten, children will draw more beautifully ...
"Cyclist" by N.S. Goncharova ... (all tangled in silks, threads and thoughts of the artist ...)
Another masterpiece .... Haven't you guessed who is in front of you? Yes, this is the "Portrait of a Philosopher" by L.S. Popov. Something reminiscent of the "checkered" from the movie "The Adventures of Prince Florizel."
It seems that we are not the only ones in this room who are "enthusiastic"....
Well, now we have to evaluate the most grandiose masterpieces of primitivism with you ... Although no, it is already called differently - Suprematism (which means, translated into simple Russian, "an early manifestation of abstract art of modern times")
We are standing in front of the works of the classic of this genre K.S. Malevich ... Paintings "Black Circle" (1923), "Black Cross" (1923) and "White Radiator" ... (Sorry, the radiator turned out to be real. - I was confused by the plate located on it, where indicated, that it can not be photographed with a flash) ...
It is a pity that the "Black Square" is not represented here.... After all, as Malevich said: "The square is the germ of all possibilities..."
Some time later, colored paints apparently appeared in Malevich's arsenal. In 1928, he was already beginning to use them ....
At least in the picture "To the Harvest (Marfa and Vanka)" this is already visible ...
By the way, there is one more phrase in Malevich's arsenal: "He who feels painting sees the object less, who sees the object, he feels the picturesque less ..." So, regarding his "cool" works, everything is elementary - you see the object (for example, a square, circle), but the painting does not "smell" ...
And finally, the great theoretician of the new art once said: "Art must renounce yesterday." Here he (Malevich) renounced real art...
In the same hall, canvases in 3 D picture....
In the paintings exhibited in this room, one can already find the beginnings of realism....
"Three at the table" P.N. Filonov (1914)...
Next room....
Here we can get acquainted with the works of K.S. Petrova-Vodkin....
"Herring" (1918),...
"Fantasy" (1925),
Then we find ourselves in the art of the 1920s - 1930s, which "reflected the political and social changes in society. The themes of labor and sports become dominant. The portrait in which the image of a contemporary acquires a collective character is just as relevant. In its desire to embody in picturesque canvases, the ideals of the new time, artists widely refer to the traditions of monumental art - panels and frescoes .... "
The collective nature of the Russian woman of that time can be seen in the painting "Woman with Buckets" (V.V. Pakulin, 1928)
And here is a picture about sports
and his admirers (A.N. Samokhvalov "Girl in a T-shirt" 1932)...
Very relevant for that era, the painting "Paramilitary Komsomol" (A.N. Samokhvalov 1932) (Now it is clear where we see such things from Chinese or Korean colleagues)
The following halls - and a new temporary era in art...
Famous painting by A.A. Deineka "Defense of Sevastopol" (1942)
More "peaceful" canvases:
"Noon" A.A. Plastov 1961,
"Morning" A.A. Mylnikov 1972,
"Buffoons" O.V. Bulgakova 1979....
"Collectors" Ya.I. Krestovsky 1975,
A very topical topic for the late 80s and early 90s of the last century was reflected in the picture of A.A. Sundukov "Queue" (1986)
And again an attempt to return to primitive things ....
V.N. Nemukhin "Interior No. 3. Diptych" (1997)
"Point in its own space" F. Infante-Arana (1964)
Well, it seems we have reached the right point in the space of the Russian Museum, which is called exit...
A breath of fresh air won't hurt us....
The oldest icon in the museum's collection. It was probably written in the 12th century. Its author is unknown, it is believed that they wrote it in Novgorod. It got its name from the fact that each hair in the image was saturated with gold leaf. She appeared in the Russian Museum in 1934, before that she wandered from the Rumyantsev Museum to the Historical Museum, from there to the Tretyakov Gallery.
The most famous painting by the artist Karl Bryullov, from whom, as it is believed, our national school of painting began. Excavations in Pompeii began just at the time when Bryullov was studying in Italy. So he drew many sketches from nature.
As Baratynsky later wrote, “the last day of Pompeii became the first day for the Russian brush.” A huge epic canvas, written by Bryullov in three years, became a symbol of the emerging Russian school of painting. In the country, the artist was literally carried in his arms. And Nicholas I hung the painting itself at the Academy of Arts, so that novice painters know what to focus on.
Ivan Aivazovsky painted hundreds of pictures of the sea, this one is the most famous. The majestic sea element, the storm, the sea, and against the background of all this - helpless victims of a shipwreck trying to escape on a ship's mast.
Aivazovsky's talent is still famous all over the world, his paintings will appear at international auctions, and the famous English marine painter Turner, who admired our artist, wrote a laudatory poem in his honor.
One of the most famous paintings by the artist Vasnetsov (along with "Alyonushka" or "Ivan Tsarevich"). The artist painted his knight several times. At first, the entire inscription was visible - he removed it. At first, the knight stood facing the viewer - he turned him around, it turned out more monumental. In addition, there was a road in the picture - Vasnetsov removed it too, for greater hopelessness.
To this day, "Vityaz" is considered one of the best Russian paintings on fairy tales and the canonical image of our painting of the second half of the 19th century, along with the canvases of Repin and Surikov.
“That's how the Cossacks answered you, shabby. You will not even feed the pigs of the Christians. We end with this, because we don’t know the date and we don’t have a calendar, a month is in the sky, a year is in a book, and our day is the same as yours, for this a kiss in **** us! - this was, according to legend, the end of the letter of the Zaporizhzhya Cossacks to the Turkish Sultan. Its text has come down to us in the form of lists (written copies) and is believed to have been written in the 17th century, when once again the Turkish sultan demanded that the Cossacks stop attacking the Brilliant Port and surrender.
A copy was found by the Yekaterinoslav historian Novitsky, who gave it to his colleague Yavornitsky, who, in turn, read it to his friends, among whom was the artist Ilya Repin. He became so interested in the plot that he soon decided to paint a picture based on it. Yavornitsky himself posed for Repin as a model for the clerk. Ataman Sirko, the artist wrote from the Kyiv Governor-General Dragomirov. And a fat, laughing Cossack in a red caftan and a white hat is the writer Gilyarovsky.
The picture was later recognized as historically unreliable (and there were many complaints about the letter itself), but in the end its success at exhibitions (including abroad) was so huge that the painting was eventually bought by Emperor Alexander III himself for placement in the Russian Museum.
The main monumental historical canvas of the Krasnoyarsk artist Vasily Surikov, for the sake of which he traveled to Switzerland. The artist wrote off the commander himself either from a teacher at a local gymnasium, or from a retired Cossack officer.
The result was a state order by chance: the artist painted a picture for the 100th anniversary of Suvorov's Alpine campaign in 1899, as a result, Emperor Nicholas II liked it so much that he bought it for the Russian Museum.
One of the key paintings in the work of the artist Vereshchagin, one of the few exhibited in the Russian Museum (most of the collection is kept in the Tretyakov Gallery). The artist - as always, with photographic accuracy unimaginable at that time - created a real story worthy of the best photojournalists of our time. Luxurious doors of the Central Asian mosque, and in front of them - the poor, for whom this rich world is closed forever.
This, by the way, is one of the few non-military paintings by Vereshchagin: he became famous primarily as a battle painter, with reporter composure revealing the horrors of war: both in Central Asia and in the Balkans. Vereshchagin also died in the war: on the battleship Petropavlovsk in Port Arthur.
An amazing stylization of an ancient plot by an artist of the Art Nouveau era. Valentin Serov, inspired by excavations on the island of Crete (where, according to legend, Zeus in the form of a bull took Europe away), painted not just a picture, but a large decorative panel.
The Russian Museum holds one of the six copies of the painting. A large version is in the State Tretyakov Gallery.
One of the most powerful paintings dedicated to the Civil War. In Petrov-Vodkin, death is devoid of any pathos, any pathos. The dying commissar and the soldier holding him have no expression of pain and anger on their faces: only fatigue, indifference, lack of will to move further, while the rest of the fighters run forward into battle to the sound of drums.
Alexander Deineka painted this picture back in 1942, literally immediately after the fall of Sevastopol. He was shown pictures of the destroyed city, and Deineka decided to create a large heroic canvas about those who defended Sevastopol. It turned out to be a little pretentious, but emotionally very strong picture about the courage and hopelessness of the situation of those who decided not to give up at all costs.

State Russian Museum
The State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg is the largest museum of Russian art in the world. It was founded by Nicholas II in 1895 and solemnly opened to visitors on March 19, 1898.
Until 1917 it was called "Russian Museum of Emperor Alexander III". Emperor Alexander III (father of Nicholas II) was a passionate collector; in this regard, he can only be compared with Catherine II. The emperor's Gatchina castle literally turned into a storehouse of priceless treasures. The acquisitions of Alexander no longer fit in the galleries of the Winter Palace, Anichkov and other palaces - these were paintings, art objects, carpets ... The extensive collection of paintings, graphics, objects of decorative art, sculptures collected by Alexander III after his death was transferred to the Russian founded by Emperor Nicholas II museum in memory of his father.
State Russian Museum
Initially, the museum was located in the halls Mikhailovsky Palace. The collection of the museum at that time consisted of 1880 works of painting, sculpture, graphics and ancient Russian art, transferred from the Imperial Palaces, the Hermitage and the Academy of Arts.
History of the Mikhailovsky Palace
The building was built in the Empire style. The idea of building a new residence for Prince Mikhail Pavlovich belonged to his father, Emperor Paul I. But Paul I did not have to see the embodiment of his idea, since he died as a result of a palace coup. Despite this, the order of the emperor was carried out. When Mikhail was 21 years old, Emperor Alexander I decided to start building the palace.
The architect planned not only the palace, but also the square in front of it and two new streets (Inzhenernaya and Mikhailovskaya).
Mikhailovsky Palace
The ceremonial laying of the building took place on July 14, and the construction itself began on July 26. From the side of the Field of Mars, a garden appeared at the palace - also Mikhailovsky. On September 11, 1825, the palace was consecrated.
Museum branches
The Russian Museum today is located, in addition to the Mikhailovsky Palace, in buildings that are architectural monuments of the 18th-19th centuries:
Summer Palace of Peter I
marble palace
Stroganov Palace
House of Peter I
The museum space is complemented by the Mikhailovsky and Summer Gardens.
Summer Palace of PetraI
Summer Palace of Peter I
The Summer Palace was built in the Baroque style according to the project Domenico Trezzini in 1710-1714. This is one of the oldest buildings in the city. The two-storey palace is rather modest and consists of only fourteen rooms and two kitchens.
The residence was intended for use only in the warm season: from May to October, so the walls in it are quite thin, and the windows have single frames. The decoration of the premises was created by the artists A. Zakharov, I. Zavarzin, F. Matveev.
The facade of the palace is decorated with 29 bas-reliefs depicting the events of the Northern War in allegorical form. The bas-reliefs were made by the German architect and sculptor Andreas Schlüter.
marble palace
marble palace
The Marble Palace was built in 1768-1785. designed by an Italian architect Antonio Rinaldi. It completes a series of ceremonial buildings adjoining the Winter Palace. The outstanding architect A. Rinaldi, the author of more than twenty-five large buildings in St. Petersburg and its suburbs, was considered an unsurpassed master of "marble facades". His architectural techniques and solutions are always easily recognizable.
Rinaldi came to Russia at the invitation of Count K.G. Razumovsky, and in 1754 he received the position of architect at the court of Prince Peter Fedorovich and his wife, the future Empress Catherine II. He built the Chinese Palace in Oranienbaum, the palace of Count G.A. Orlov in Gatchina, etc. But the Marble Palace is perhaps the most significant of all its buildings. The palace was intended for Grigory Orlov, the favorite of Catherine II, the main organizer of her accession to the throne. The building got its name because of the unusual for St. Petersburg decoration of facades with natural stone. At that time, rich deposits of marble were found in Russia. Thirty-two varieties of northern and Italian marble were used for the interior and exterior decoration of the palace. The strict appearance of the building is typical of early classicism.
The main facade of the Marble Palace faces the Field of Mars. It is decorated with columns, and the opposite facade - pilasters of the Corinthian order. The famous sculptor F.I. Shubin made two statues on the attic and a composition of military armor. In collaboration with M.I. Kozlovsky, he participated in the creation of the interior sculptural and decorative decoration of the palace. The decoration of the main staircase and the first tier of the walls of the Marble Hall have survived to our time. An elegant fence made of spears and pillars with vases and trophies encloses the vast front yard. Later, a service building was built from the eastern part near the Marble Palace. The bas-relief "Serving a Horse to Man" by sculptor P.K. Klodt adorns the western facade of the building.
In the 1990s, the palace became a branch of the Russian Museum.
Engineering (Mikhailovsky) castle
Engineering (Mikhailovsky) castle
It was built by order of Emperor Paul I at the turn of the 18th-19th centuries and became the place of his death.
The Mikhailovsky Castle owes its name to the church of Michael the Archangel, the patron of the Romanov dynasty, located in it, and the whim of Paul I, who took the title of Grand Master of the Order of Malta, to call all his palaces "castles"; the second name - "Engineering" came from the Main (Nikolaev) Engineering School, which was located there since 1823, now VITU.
The palace project was developed architect V. I. Bazhenov on behalf of Emperor Paul I, who wanted to make it his main front residence. Construction led architect V. Brenna(who has long been erroneously considered the author of the project). Brenna reworked the original design of the palace and created the artistic decoration of its interiors.
In addition to Bazhenov and Brenn, the emperor himself took part in the creation of the project, having composed several drawings for him. Brenna's assistants also included Fyodor Svinin and Karl Rossi. Paul I accelerated the construction, Charles Cameron and Giacomo Quarenghi were sent to help him. By order of the emperor, construction was carried out day and night (by the light of lanterns and torches), as he demanded that the castle be rebuilt in the same year.
On November 21, 1800, on the day of St. Michael the Archangel, the castle was solemnly consecrated, but work on its interior decoration still continued until March 1801. After the assassination of the emperor, 40 days after the housewarming, Mikhailovsky Castle was abandoned by the Romanovs and came to into desolation. When Alexander I needed silver for a luxurious service - a wedding gift to his sister Anna Pavlovna, Queen of the Netherlands, the silver gates from the palace church were melted down. Nicholas I ordered the architects to “quarry” marble in the palace for the construction of the New Hermitage.
In 1823 the castle was occupied by the Main Engineering School.
In 1991, a third of the castle premises was donated to the State Russian Museum, in 1995 the entire castle was donated to the museum.
Stroganov Palace
Stroganov Palace
The Stroganov Palace, built according to the project architect Francesco Bartolomeo Rastrelli in 1753-1754, one of the examples of Russian baroque.
In addition to F. B. Rastrelli, A.N. Voronikhin, I. F. Kolodin, K. Rossi, I. Charlemagne, P. S. Sadovnikov.
Stroganovs (Strogonovs) - a family of Russian merchants and industrialists, from which large landowners and statesmen of the 16th-20th centuries came. Natives of the rich Pomeranian peasants. From the 18th century - barons and counts of the Russian Empire. The family died out in 1923.
The building has been a branch of the Russian Museum since 1988.
Petra's houseI
House of Peter I
The first building in St. Petersburg, the summer home of Tsar Peter I in the period from 1703 to 1708. This small wooden house of 60 m² was built by carpenter soldiers near Trinity Square in just three days. Here, on May 27, 1703, a celebration took place on the occasion of the annexation of lands and the founding of a new city.
The house was built from hewn pine logs in the manner of a Russian hut. The canopy divides it into two parts. In addition to this feature, as well as doors decorated with ornamental metal plates - typical features inherent in Russian architecture of the 17th century - everything in the house reminds of the tsar's passion for Dutch architecture. So, Peter, wanting to give the house the appearance of a stone structure, ordered the logs to be hewn and painted to look like red brick, the high roof to be covered with shingles under the tiles, and unusually large windows to be made with small deglazing. There were no stoves and chimneys in the house, since Peter lived in it only during the warm season. The house has been preserved almost in its original form.

K. Bryullov "The Last Day of Pompeii"
Bryullov visited Pompeii in 1828, making many sketches for a future painting about the famous Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD. uh. and the destruction of the city of Pompeii near Naples. The painting was exhibited in Rome, received rave reviews from critics and was transferred to the Louvre. "The Last Day of Pompeii" represents romanticism in Russian painting, mixed with idealism. The image of the artist in the left corner of the picture is a self-portrait of the author. The canvas also depicts Countess Yulia Pavlovna Samoilova three times - a woman with a jug on her head, standing on a dais in the left side of the canvas, a woman who has crashed to death, sprawled on the pavement, and next to her a living child - both, presumably, were thrown out of a broken chariot - in the center canvases, and a mother attracting her daughters to her, in the left corner of the picture.
In 1834, the painting "The Last Day of Pompeii" was sent to St. Petersburg. AI Turgenev said that this picture was the glory of Russia and Italy. E. A. Baratynsky composed a famous aphorism on this occasion: "The last day of Pompeii became the first day for the Russian brush!". A. S. Pushkin also left a poetic review:
K. Bryullov "Portrait of A. Demidov"
Vesuvius zev opened - smoke gushed in a club - flame
Widely developed like a battle banner.
The earth worries - from staggering columns
Idols are falling! A people driven by fear
Under the stone rain, under the inflamed ashes,
Crowds, old and young, run out of the city.
By the way, the famous painting was painted by Karl Bryullov by order Anatoly Demidov, a Russian and French philanthropist, who was at the Russian embassy, first in Paris, and then in Rome and Vienna. He inherited from his father colossal wealth and a collection of wonderful works of painting, sculpture, bronze, etc. Anatoly Demidov, following the example of his father, was generous with large donations: he donated 500,000 rubles for the construction of a house in St. Petersburg for the charity of workers, which bore the name of the donor; together with his brother Pavel Nikolaevich, he donated capital, for which a children's hospital was built in St. Petersburg; at the Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg, established a prize of 5,000 rubles for the best work in Russian; in 1853 he sent 2,000 rubles from Paris to decorate the church of the Demidov Lyceum in Yaroslavl, donated all his publications and several other valuable French books to the library of the Lyceum, and generously patronized scientists and artists. So, it was Anatoly Demidov who presented Bryullov’s painting “The Last Day of Pompeii” to Nicholas I, who exhibited the painting at the Academy of Arts as a guide for novice painters. After the opening of the Russian Museum in 1895, the canvas was moved there and the general public gained access to it.

Painting by I. Aivazovsky "The Ninth Wave"
I. Aivazovsky "The Ninth Wave"
The Ninth Wave is one of the most famous paintings by Ivan Aivazovsky, the world famous Russian marine painter.

Painting by Nicholas Ge "The Last Supper"
N. Ge "The Last Supper"
The artist's painting depicts an episode from the earthly life of Christ, described in the Gospel of John (ch. 13). It was Ge's favorite gospel. An excerpt of this text coincides in detail with that depicted in the picture.
Jesus got up from supper... poured water into the laver and began to wash the disciples' feet and wipe them with a towel... When he had washed their feet... then, lying down, he said to them again: Do you know what I have done to you? ... if I, the Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, then you must also wash each other's feet. For I have given you an example that you should do as I have done for you...
…Jesus was troubled in spirit and said: Truly, truly, I say to you that one of you will betray Me.
Then the disciples looked at each other, wondering who he was talking about. One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was reclining at the chest of Jesus. Simon Peter made a sign to him to ask who it was ... he, crouching on the chest of Jesus, said to Him: Lord! Who is it? Jesus answered: the one to whom, having dipped a piece of bread, I will give. And, having soaked a piece, he gave it to Judas Simonov Iscariot. And after this piece, Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him: whatever you do, do it quickly. But none of those reclining understood why He said this to him ... He, having taken a piece, immediately went out; but it was night.
An amphora with water, a washbasin with a towel in Ge's "Last Supper" are the theme of the sacrificial love of Christ. After the departure of Judas, the famous words addressed to the apostles were uttered: « I give you a new commandment, that you love one another; how I have loved you… Therefore, everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
The end of the 19th-beginning of the 20th century is represented by artists I. Levitan, P. Trubetskoy, M. Vrubel, V. Serov.
Painting by I. Levitan “Twilight. Moon"
I. Levitan "Twilight. Moon"

Works of the association "World of Art"
"World of Art"(1898-1924) - an art association formed in Russia in the late 1890s. The founders of the "World of Art" were the St. Petersburg artist A. N. Benois and the theater figure S. P.

Arkhip Kuindzhi. "Moonlit night on the Dnieper". 1880
Bank of the river. The horizon line runs down. The silvery-greenish light of the moon is reflected in the water. “Moonlight Night on the Dnieper” is one of the most famous paintings by Arkhip Kuindzhi.
The magic of the landscape captivated the Grand Duke Konstantin Konstantinovich, who bought it for a lot of money directly from the artist's studio. The prince did not want to part with his favorite painting even during his round-the-world trip. As a result, his whim almost ruined Kuindzhi's masterpiece - because of the sea air, the composition of the paint changed, the landscape began to darken. But, despite this, the picture to this day has a magical appeal, forcing the audience to peer into it for a long time.

Karl Bryullov. "The last day of Pompeii". 1830-1833

While among the barge haulers, Ilya Efimovich Repin met the former priest Kanin, from whom he would later create many sketches for the painting.
“Something about him was oriental, ancient. But the eyes, the eyes! What a depth of gaze, raised to the eyebrows, also tending to the forehead ... And the forehead is a large, smart, intelligent forehead; this is not a simpleton, ”the master said about him.

Valentin Serov. The abduction of Europe. 1910
The idea to write "The Abduction of Europe" was born by Valentin Serov during a trip to Greece. A visit to the Palace of Knossos on the island of Crete made a great impression on him. In 1910, the painting, which was based on the legend of the abduction by Zeus of Europe, the daughter of the Phoenician king Agenor, was completed.
According to some evidence, Serov created six versions of the painting.

Boris Kustodiev. Portrait of F.I. Chaliapin. 1922
“I knew a lot in the life of interesting, talented and good people. But if I have ever seen a really great spirit in a person, it is in Kustodiev, ”famous singer Fyodor Chaliapin wrote about the artist in his autobiographical book Mask and Soul.
Work on the painting was carried out in the painter's apartment. The room where Chaliapin posed for Kustodiev was so small that the picture had to be painted in parts.
The artist's son later recalled the funny moment of the work. According to him, in order to capture Fyodor Ivanovich’s beloved dog on canvas, he had to use a trick: “To make the pug stand with his head up, they put a cat on the closet, and Chaliapin did everything possible so that the dog looked at her.”
