Description


Ivan Ivanovich Shishkin is considered to be one of Russia's most powerful and original landscape painters. He was born on the 25th (13th, old style) of January 1832, in Yelabuga, a small provincial town on the steep bank of the Kama River. The future artist spent his youth in this austere but picturesque region. Few artists have been so widely acclaimed or so worthy of the unreserved admiration of their countrymen. At annual art exhibitions over several decades his work never failed to attract attention. His paintings were frequently reproduced in art journals, while his drawings and etchings were published separately. In the words of one of his contemporaries, "There is no other artist who possessed such a faultless technique or who so faithfully and with such deep affection for his native land and his art portrayed that Russian nature so dear to us. In the depiction of the Russian forest, Shishkin has no equal."
