The only love Vasily Surikova

The great Russian artist Vasily Ivanovich Surikov was born in Krasnoyarsk on January 12, 1848 in the family of a stationery employee, a leaving from the antique Cossack kind. The first drawing lessons the boy received from his school teacher. In 1868 he went to St. Petersburg, where he entered the Academy of Arts. By graduation, I lived in Moscow. Constantly came to Siberia, visited Don, Volga, in the Crimea. In 1880-1890, I visited France, Italy and a number of other European countries. A special impact on his formation as the artist was provided by the Master of Venetian and spanish Renaissance Baroque, especially Veronese and Velasquez.

When they met, she was twenty, and he was thirty. Together they were destined to live long, just ten years old, but their history is one of the most wonderful. This is history happy love and tragic Fate. Surikov for the first time saw his future spouse Elizabeth Augustus Charo during the morning Mass in catholic church St. Catherine, in St. Petersburg. As it turned out, they both loved the music of Bach. Young people every Sunday came to Nevsky Prospect to hear the chorala famous composer. After a series of such meetings, acquaintance was acquainted.
Soon Surikov had to leave - he received an order for the painting of the christ of Christ the Savior in Moscow. It was 1877. All summer Surikov cut time on the trips to St. Petersburg to see the beauty in his heart, and in December he asked Lisa's hands. The bride, although born in Russia, was a real Parisian on her upbringing. Her father "Frenchman August Share, met a Russian girl in Paris and married her. After some time, the family moved to Petersburg, where they had five children. Customs and orders in the family are preserved by French, and the daughters were distinguished among the peers in special Paris Chic, although the family was not particularly rich.
Surikov hid from his relatives joyful news About wedding.
Make him it was not easy. The reason for such a strange behavior of Surikov was simple: he was happy, but worried about his choice to his choice, a very harsh woman, Siberian Cossack. For her, the daughter-in-law "Frenchwoman" would be a surprise not particularly pleasant. For her beloved Vassenka, she probably would like to find a bride simple, understandable.

The newlyweds moved to Moscow, where they lived very friendly. Both loved music, literature, together they were not bored, and in the first years their life proceeded quite secluded. Vasily was really happy - next to him, who understood him, forgot the full immersion in the work. W. happy couple Two girls were born - Olga and, in two years, Elena. They never separated, even when the girls were very small, traveled together. Surikov joked that "all my - always with me." Sometimes the happiness of the family sometimes darkenly: Elizabeth had a congenital heart disease.

Outlooking Surikov worked not to twist. Were written "Morning streletskaya execution"And" Fewing Morozova ", recognized and financial independence. Surikov admired her wife, gladly painted her. She was a fitter for one of the most tragic figures in Russian painting - Menshikov's eldest daughter, Mary.

"Menshikov in Berezov" (1883).

His picture of "Menshikov in Berezov" Surikov wrote for a long time. We needed faces that would express the entire tragedy of the fate of the family who was once the most powerful in Russia and in a link to the edge of the Earth, in Siberia. Maria, Former tsarist Bride, died at the age of 18 in the link. Here I was painted by Vasily Ivanovich Surikov from his wife. But both of them could not be supposed that in some mystical sense The fate of Mary, who did not lead to life in Siberia, will respond in the fate of Elizabeth.

Once Surikovy after almost one year old travel in Europe is sent to Siberia. The dampness of water Siberian travels, shaking on broken roads ... All this was a heavy test for fragile health Lisa. On the way back it is seriously ill. Siberia, which so pleased Surikov, was destructive for her. During his wife's illness, he did not move away from her, did not trust it with anyone. He coped with all the prescriptions of doctors. But in the spring of Elizabeth died.
Surikov never married again, he lived only for his girls and for art.

She will soon have grief -
She will remain without mom.
Her father is guardian
But life interferes stubbornly.

She has a lot in life -
Diseases, hunger, cold, war.
Still girl looks
The world is trusting, calm.

It is still under the wing
Father, Parental House,
But soon everything goes on the layer
And she does not avoid fault.

But she will all suffer
And the genus will continue her
Over the years, the girl will enter
In the culture of Russian being.

And in the twenty-first century step
Her distant descendants,
And the light of culture will suffer
Through years not merciful dots.
(Sapritsky E.B.)

They saw each other, when Pete was 16 years old, and Ole - 14. He came to the workshop of Father Oli-artist Vasily Surikova - to take lessons. But the serious young lady was then more interested in their own classes in the gymnasium. So in that mumbling meeting of adolescents did not even provide each other. This acquaintance happened ten years later. And this was already love, let him from a second look. After three weeks, Peter and Olya realized that they could not live without a friend. Vasily Surikov wrote about this brother: "You need to inform the message very joyful and unexpected: Olya is married for young artist From a good noble family, Peter Petrovich Konchalovsky. He is an Orthodox and believer. " Soon the spouses had a daughter Natasha.

Their daughter and granddaughter Surikova - Natalia - will marry Sergei Mikhalkov, a famous Basinist, playwright, author of two hymns: Soviet Union and Russian Federation. In this marriage there are two sons - famous film director Nikita Mikhalkov and Andrey Mikhalkov-Konchalovsky, the great artist.

Through the portrait of the viewer easily feels with what love and graceing is this ten-year-old girl is depicted. She is very good and sweet, although she has a little incapacular and not a proportional figure, but it will pass with adulthood. Her expressive eyes, but a little dying and playful look right on us. She is inquisitive. She has a round calm face and black lush short hair.

Looking at the picture, we feel the tension of the girl, consisting in posing. She tries, clinging to the wall to please the Father. Her bright red dress in a small peas with a white lace collar and red tights competently shake her black hair. The author is very correctly saturated with colors that allow you to show a bright and lively portrait. On the waist red Kushak, and on the legs dark black shoes.

He loves her, showing the viewer with an excellent children's child and her light childhood. We do not have the feeling that the child is capricious and harmful. Everything is just the opposite. She is restrained and mila, perhaps a little bit of a mustache, like all normal children.

High fatherly feelings show the author in this picture, because Serov never worked on request, he wrote portraits only for relatives and beloved people. After all, it is correct to say that the happiest and good childhood, the better the future life will be.
