This original work «Visiting Classics: in Boldino at Pushkin, in Tarkhany at Lermontov» was created by contemporary Russian artist Alexei Kolesov and is available for purchase online.
The painting by Alexei Kolesov «В Болдино у Пушкина, в Тарханах у Лермонтова» is a diptych contrasting two iconic places of Russian literature. The left panel, dedicated to Boldino, is filled with autumn gold and warmth. A bright, almost fiery sky and fallen leaves create a sense of creative uplift and inspiration. A shawl lies on a bench, and sheets of paper are scattered around, like fragments of poems that have slipped from the poet’s pen. In the distance, a classical gazebo is visible, evoking the ideals of harmony and beauty that inspired Pushkin.
The right panel of the diptych, dedicated to Tarkhany, is painted in cool, muted tones. Gray and blue dominate, creating an atmosphere of melancholy and solitude. A snow-covered path and bare tree trunks symbolize the harshness and tragedy of Lermontov’s fate. On a table near the park stands a solitary bottle, hinting at despair and the search for solace. Here too, sheets of paper are scattered, but they seem lost and forgotten.
«Kolesov’s Diptych» is not merely a depiction of two estates but a reflection on the destinies of two great poets, on different facets of the Russian soul, and on the eternal connection between literature and place. The contrast in color palette and atmosphere emphasizes the individuality of each, creating a profound and multifaceted image.
This painting can be hung on the wall in your apartment, house, office, restaurant, or hotel, and it will become a beautiful decoration for your interior.
