Viktor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov 1848 - 1926 Fabulous - epic genre in painting

self-portrait

Viktor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov was born on May 15, 1848 in the Russian village of Lopyal, Urzhum district, Vyatka province (now the Kirov region), into the family of an Orthodox priest. Society for the Encouragement of Arts, where in 1867-68 he studied under the guidance of I. N. Kramskoy. In 1868-75 he improved his skills at the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts. Since 1878 - a member of the Association of Traveling Art Exhibitions.

The artist liked to wander along the old Moscow streets. And when he returned home, he often said: “How many miracles I have seen!” In front of St. Basil's Cathedral, he could not hold back his tears. Seen and experienced matured in the painting "Tsar Ivan Vasilyevich the Terrible"

Painting "Tsar Ivan Vasilyevich the Terrible"

The figure of the king occupied almost the entire canvas. Ivan the Terrible, dressed in brocade fur, in a hat with icons, in embroidered mittens, was descending a steep staircase. His appearance was majestic, his face expressed will, great intelligence and at the same time suspicion, anger and anger. Strictly sustained color scheme of the picture created the impression of monumentality.

After the battle of Igor Svyatoslavich with the Polovtsy

In the painting “After the Battle of Igor Svyatoslavich with the Polovtsy”, the artist wanted to solemnly sadly and poetically sing the heroism of Russian soldiers, as the creator of “The Tale of Igor's Campaign” did. That is why he depicted not the horrors of the battle, but the greatness of death for the homeland. Rest emanates from the bodies of the fallen. The beautiful mighty hero, lying with his arms wide open, and the young prince in azure robes personified the idea of ​​selfless service to the Motherland.

Knight at the Crossroads

Twilight steppe, the field of a former battle with bones scattered across it. The evening glow is burning. A warning stone stands at the crossroads of three roads. Immersed in a deep thought, the knight stopped in front of him

Bogatyrs

In the picture "Bogatyrs", the heroes of Russian epics, beloved by the people, appear as defenders of their people. In the combination of courage and pride, ingenuity and dexterity, indomitable greatness of spirit, the heroic outpost of ancient Rus' is embodied in Vasnetsov's picture. In a laconic landscape, the open spaces, the immensity of Russian fields are tangibly conveyed.

Alyonushka

One of the most poetic creations of the artist is the painting "Alyonushka" - the image of a bitter orphan's fate. A lonely sad girl sits on a stone by the water. Around woods. And, as if taking part in her grief, the aspens tend to the orphan, guard her slender Christmas trees, the swallows chirp affectionately over her. There is grief in Alyonushka's brown eyes, and, like her grief, it is dark and deep. Tears drip, and golden leaves fly down.

Love for folklore, for the Russian folk tale Vasnetsov carried through his whole life. Full of poetic fabulousness is his painting "Flying Carpet" (1880). The silhouette of the carpet, spread out like a strange bird, and the desert steppes far below, and the lucky Ivanushka - all this excites the viewer's imagination, evoking images he has loved since childhood.

Magic carpet

From the paintings of Vasnetsov on fairy tales, “Ivan Tsarevich on a gray wolf”, “Three princesses of the underworld”, “Sleeping princess”, “Snow Maiden” and others are known.

Ivan Tsarevich on the Gray Wolf

The Snow Maiden is a character in a folk tale about a girl made of snow who came to life. Like all other characters of Vasnetsov, the Snow Maiden reflects the ideal of beauty, “pure snowy Russia”, and nature completely repeats the mood of the heroine. An unknown forest, scattered Christmas trees, a gloomy but moonlit sky and snow sparkling under the moon.

Snow Maiden

The painting "Sleeping Princess" takes us to a real fairy tale. Bright rich colors only emphasize the unusualness of what is happening in front of us. The painted tower, the bear and peacocks sitting on the branches, the jester and the young harpman, the emerald green of the forests - all this looks like a child's joyful dream. So it is, we caught just the moment when the princess pricked her finger with a spindle, and a terrible prediction came true - not only the girl fell asleep, but the whole huge kingdom. People, birds, animals, flowers and trees are all asleep. It seems that not a single breeze dares to disturb the enchanted palace, not a single sound will reach here.

sleeping princess

The painting "Three princesses of the underworld" depicts three princesses: gold, precious stones and coal - the mysterious earthly bowels. It is based on the story of the same name. The peasant son Ivan, descending underground, found a kingdom of gold, precious stones and iron, and brought the princesses of these kingdoms to earth. Vasnetsov depicts three princesses in luxurious decorations, symbolizing the richness of the bowels of the Earth.

Three princesses of the underworld

BOYAN (Bayan), Russian songwriter of the 11th - 12th centuries, who composed songs of glory in honor of the exploits of the princes. It was first mentioned in The Tale of Igor's Campaign. The bayan was captured by the artist during the "magic process" - the singing of songs. The gray long hair of this hero flutters in the wind, large burning eyes stand out on his face, directed somewhere into the distance ... The soldiers surrounding him personify the force that is designed to protect Russia.

Turning to the themes of folklore mythology, Vasnetsov radically changed the Russian historical genre, combining historical realities, reproduced with archaeological authenticity, with the exciting atmosphere of the legend. He drew the content of his paintings from the beautiful, romantic world of folk fantasy.

> was born in 1876 in St. Petersburg in the family of a military doctor. The father did not support his son's aspirations for drawing, and at the request of his father, Bilibin graduated from the law faculty of St. In 1898 he traveled to Munich to work in the workshop of Professor Ashbe. Bilibin preserved the basics of accurate drawing for the rest of his life. Bilibin spends the summer of 1899 in the Tver province, where his acquaintance with the Russian countryside and folk art begins. In the same year, the Expedition of State Papers began to publish Russian folk tales with drawings by Bilibin. Bilibin's name became widely known throughout Russia. In his face was a master who perfectly conveyed the spirit of joyful and folk fabulousness. To this day, these “Bilibino” tales are an example of high printing technology. This series included “Vasilisa the Beautiful”, “The Tale of Ivan Tsarevich and the Gray Wolf”<Рисунок 2 >, “White Duck”, “The Frog Princess”, etc. Bilibin fully joined the “World of Art” association. The first resounding success was the impetus for the further development of the artist's work. He made trips to the north of Russia, where he discovered the beauty of wooden architecture and the ornamental richness of folk costumes and embroideries. The results of the trip showed up pretty soon. In 1904, the epic "Volga" with drawings by Bilibin came out of print. This is one of the best publications of our century. The illustrations of this epic depict the departure of the Volga squad, the fantastic Indian kingdom, the bowels of the sea, birds and fabulous animals. Everything in the edition of this epic was distinguished by taste and grace. In its further development, Bilibin meets with the work of Pushkin, and in 1905 the “Tale of Tsar Saltan” and “About the Golden Cockerel” appear.<Рисунок 3 >. But Bilibin was not only interested in fairy tales and epics, he was also attracted by other aspects of folk art: sayings and riddles. There is also humor in the drawings for riddles, dressed in an attractive and decorative form. The decorative qualities of Bilibin's work, his imagination and deep knowledge of styles attracted him to theatrical work.

During the civil war, Bilibin ended up in Egypt, in 1925 he settled in Paris, but everywhere he was busy with his favorite work of illustrating books. In 1936, Bilibin returned to his homeland, he came to St. Petersburg-Leningrad and began working as a professor at the graphic workshop of the Academy of Arts, causing, as usual, respect from students. But the war began, Bilibin moved from his private apartment to the basement of the Academy of Arts, where teachers were accommodated. The difficult conditions of basement life and the lack of proper nutrition undermined Bilibin's health. He refused to evacuate deep into Russia and continued to work all the time on a series of decorative panels united by a common theme - "Bogatyrs". His last work was an illustration for the epic "Duke Stepanovich". It was a detailed preparatory drawing that had to be covered with watercolor, but it remained in pencil. Feeling that his strength was leaving him, Bilibin placed an eight-pointed cross under the top button that held the paper on the board. It was the final touch, the “last forgiveness” of the artist. The artist died on the night of February 7-8, 1942.

All works of the artist are united by one invariable quality - exceptional craftsmanship. Bilibin's works teach respect for work and responsibility for every line, for every pattern. In all the works of the artist, his love for the ancient world of Russia is visible, and he carried admiration of this world through his whole life. Captivating is his dream of happiness, of using all kinds of images of beauty in life. Who keeps the youth of the soul in himself, he will find joy in the works of Bilibin.
