Painting by I. Shishkin

The famous Russian landscape artist, when creating his works, gave preference to summer theme. However, he strived for variety in his work, painting paintings depicting other seasons as well. One of these creations is the canvas “Winter”. The painting is impressive as it reveals the torpor of winter Centrally is Pinery, covered with deep fluffy snow.

The winter landscapes of Russian artists amaze with their magnificence. The most beloved in Rus' folk holiday- Maslenitsa - depicted on painting of the same name B. Kustodieva. The work conveys the mood of a mischievous and cheerful farewell to winter and welcome to spring. The main attributes of Maslenitsa are pancakes and folk festival. It’s hard to believe that this cheerful picture was created when he was seriously ill and confined to a wheelchair.

March winter day in a painting by K. Yuon

Winter in the paintings of Russian artists seems mysterious and wary. The opposite mood is the painting by K. Yuon “March Sun”. A clear, piercing blue sky, sparkling snow, and bright spots convey the freshness of a frosty day. The temperamental artist depicted two horsemen moving on their horses along a narrow path. A beautiful horse catches up with them, with a dog running leisurely next to it. The triumphant joyful colors gave the picture fame and love from the audience.

Night as depicted by A. Kuidzhi

Paintings about winter by Russian artists convey a feeling of a fantastic atmosphere. As if proving this, A. Kuidzhi’s work “Moonlight Spots in the Forest. Winter” depicts the space of a small forest clearing surrounded by trees and bushes in the snow. Moonlight illuminates motionless objects, turning the entire clearing into a mysterious space. The light areas froze in a daze. WITH different sides thick shadows creep up on them in dark spots, which smoothly turn into the tops of the trees.

Thus, paintings about winter by Russian artists are filled with a contrast of mystery and harmony. They convey to the viewer not only all the splendor and beauty of Russian nature, but also deep meaning, mood, creator. Winter in the paintings of Russian artists is presented in all its grandeur. All this together contributes to the creation of a special atmosphere in the viewer’s mind, allowing one to feel like a participant in the animated landscape and “touch” its details.

No, after all, winter without snow is not winter. But in big city The snow doesn’t stick around yet, it falls today and is gone tomorrow. All that remains is to admire the snow in the paintings of artists. Having traced this theme in painting, I discovered that the best snow landscapes, of course, come from Russian artists. Which is not surprising, Russia has always been the snowiest and frostiest country. After all, these are ours - felt boots, sheepskin coats, sleighs, and hats with earflaps! I have already presented Aivazovsky’s winter landscapes. And now another 10 best snow pictures Russian artists late XIX- the beginning of the 20th century, very famous and little known, but no less remarkable, but this is only a very small part of the Russian heritage.
A few words about the artist whose painting begins this list. This is one of the first images of winter in Russian painting, painted at a time when landscape artists painted mainly views of Italy or Switzerland with waterfalls and mountain peaks. A.G. Venetsianov (teacher, member of the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts, founder of the so-called Venetsian school) met Krylov in the Terebensky monastery of the Tver province, where he, as an apprentice, painted the iconostasis with the artel of Kalyazin icon painters. On the advice of Venetsianov, Krylov began drawing from life and painting portraits. In 1825 he came to St. Petersburg, settled with Venetsianov as his student and at the same time began to attend drawing classes at the Academy of Arts. The history of the creation of the painting is known. In 1827 young artist the intention arose to paint a winter view from life. When Krylov chose a place on the banks of the Tosna River, near St. Petersburg, one of the wealthy merchants and patrons of the arts built him a warm workshop there and gave him a table and allowance for the entire duration of his work. The painting was completed within a month. She appeared at an exhibition at the Academy of Arts.

1. Ivan Ivanovich Shishkin (1832-1898) - great Russian artist (painter, landscape painter, engraver), academician. Shishkin studied painting at the School of Painting in Moscow, and then continued his education at the Academy of Arts in St. Petersburg. Having the opportunity to travel, Shishkin visited Germany, Munich, then Switzerland, Zurich. Everywhere Shishkin worked in the workshops of famous artists. In 1866 he returned to St. Petersburg. Traveling around Russia, he then presented his paintings at exhibitions.

2. Ivan Pavlovich Pokhitonov (1850-1923) - Russian artist, master of landscape. Member of the Association of Itinerants. He became famous for his miniatures, mainly landscape ones. He wrote with a thin brush, using a magnifying glass, on tablets of red or lemon tree, which he primed using a special technology. “This is some kind of sorcerer-artist, so masterfully, masterfully done; the way he writes, you just can’t understand... A sorcerer!” - I.E. Repin spoke about him. He lived most of his life in France and Belgium, without losing contact with Russia. His work organically combined the poetic mood characteristic of Russian landscapes with French sophistication and strict demands on the pictorial quality of works. Unfortunately, the work of this original Russian artist is currently in the shadows, but at one time his paintings were highly regarded as great artists, and lovers of painting.

Many, and maybe all, outstanding artists I admired that time of year when nature rests and gains strength under a fluffy white cover. And they, inspired, created amazing winter landscapes, several of which we will admire today.

Winter landscapes by outstanding artists. Julius Klever “Winter landscape with a hut”, 1899

Yuliy Klever - Russian artist German origin, academician and professor of the Imperial Academy of Arts. Born in 1850 in the city of Dorpat (now Tartu in Estonia). The artist was in love with fairy tales, which is clearly visible in each of his works - even if there are no fairy tale characters, then their spirit is felt in forest, swamp and river landscapes.

Winter landscapes by outstanding artists. Igor Grabar, “Luxurious frost”, 1941

Igor Grabar is a Russian artist, art historian, restorer, teacher. Born in Budapest in 1871, he traveled a lot. In the 1930s, he “settled” in the artists’ holiday village in Abramtsevo. The local nature became for Grabar the landscape painter an inexhaustible source inspiration. The main object of observation and work for him was frost. An example of this is the painting “Luxurious Frost”.

Winter landscapes by outstanding artists. Ivan Aivazovsky, “Ice Mountains in Antarctica”, 1870

This work is worldwide famous artist-marine painter I. Aivazovsky has three plot components: amazing sea power, the stunning beauty of eternal winter and the courage of the Russian navigators Bellingshausen and Lazarev, who discovered Antarctica during an expedition in 1820. Painting " Ice Mountains in Antarctica" is based on the memoirs of Admiral Lazarev.

Winter landscapes by outstanding artists. Arkhip Kuindzhi, “Sun spots on frost”, 1876-1890

Arkhip Kuindzhi is a famous Russian landscape painter, a student of Aivazovsky himself. Born in 1851. In his works, with the help of gradation in halftones, he sometimes achieved complete optical illusion. Unfortunately, due to the change in colors over time, Kuindzhi’s paintings lose much of their former richness. Therefore, we hasten to admire what has been preserved.

Winter landscapes by outstanding artists. Isaac Levitan, “Forest in Winter”, 1885

Levitan - Russian artist Jewish origin, master of “mood landscape”. Levitan's works prove that the forest element is beautiful at any time of the year - be it lush spring, hot summer, rainy autumn or magical snowy winter. We, pampered city dwellers, enjoy seeing beauty winter forest falls out extremely rarely. And you can look at her with the brilliant eyes of Levitan at any moment.

Winter landscapes by outstanding artists. Viktor Vasnetsov “Winter Dream” (“Winter”), 1908-1914

Viktor Vasnetsov is another adept of Russian landscape, as well as a master of historical and folklore painting. Most of his work “Winter Dream” is occupied by the edge of the forest. The snow has enveloped the trees in a fluffy blanket, everything seems to have frozen, silence and peace reign all around. And only light traces of the sleigh, leading to a village barely visible in the distance, are visible on the left side of the picture. Somewhere there is the warmth of the hearth, but here, in the foreground, severe frost reigns.

Winter landscapes by outstanding artists. Boris Kustodiev, “Skiers”, 1919

Boris Kustodiev - Russian and Soviet painter, landscape painter, graphic artist, illustrator and theater artist. Canvas "Skiers" - amazing example white on white work. Frost-covered trees stand out against the backdrop of an endless snow-covered plain. Plumes of dull white smoke released by the locomotive obscure the snowy road from view. And all this pastoral splendor is watched by two skiers - a girl and a boy.

Winter landscapes by outstanding artists. Pieter Bruegel the Elder, "Winter Landscape with Skaters and a Bird Trap", 1565

Pieter Bruegel the Elder is a Dutch painter and graphic artist, the most famous of those who bore the surname “Bruelel”. At first glance, in his “Winter Landscape with Skaters and a Bird Trap,” you can only see how carefree people frolic on the ice. The bird trap in the heavy door on the right side of the picture is barely visible. And where is your catcher? It’s not for nothing that Bruegel the Elder is considered a joker...

Winter landscapes by outstanding artists. Hendrik Averkamp, ​​"Winter Landscape with Skaters", 1609

Another Dutch painter, Hendrik Averkamp, ​​like Bruegel, loved to paint small, realistic winter landscapes. One of them is this “Winter Landscape”, also with an upwardly shifted horizon and a trap door (direct quote from Bruegel). By the way, try to find her.

Desn consists of accepting with your entire being what is happening around you. this moment. The irrational aspect of admiring nature - without realizing oneself in it - is the Zen of a child. It’s very strange to see Plastov’s “First Snow” being taught to children at school. Or not strange, but true?

The art of drawing and painting itself are nothing more than tools that promote literature and, consequently, the enlightenment of the people.
Alexey Gavrilovich Venetsianov

Winter picture modern master on classic theme about the frost and the sun pleases with birch trees and snow. Nikolai Anokhin depicts Russian copses and standing on the outskirts country house. This canvas will take its rightful place in our collection of winter reproductions.

The painting by the famous artist Konstantin Yuon is integral to its name - “ March sun". IN otherwise we might not understand that this is exactly March, the end of winter. Thank you, the author explains. Let's look at the canvas, bright and solid? Not quite. The composition “right through” reflects movement, turning, towards the light and towards summer.

Famous picture Viktor Grigorievich Tsyplakov’s “Frost and Sun” depicts not the sun itself, but the effects of lighting. The painting contrasts strong houses and sleighs with horses moving along a snowy road towards us, the spectators.

The painting by Alexey Savrasov depicts the corner of a snow-filled courtyard, fenced with a strong fence. Savrasov painted rickety huts, courtyards like these, and wide deserted winter landscapes of the Middle Zone.

An unsophisticated picture at first glance Alexey Savrasov It doesn’t even depict winter, but space. And not the road - the distance. The coloring, practically reduced to white and dark, is interesting for analysis.

Interesting winter landscape Gustav Courbet depicts the deserted outskirts of a village in disgusting, dank, cold and damp weather. Where are the horses and people? In stalls and taverns, perhaps.

Marvelous contemporary artist Nikolay Krymov. His " Winter evening"would look great in the artists' gallery on Vernissage or Krymsky Val. It’s just that now everyone writes like this, well, or through one, but Krymov- first. And very different.
