Aivazovskyi. The Gallery in fact is the sole in Ukraine museum of the seascape painting. Apart from the pictures of the illustrious seascape painter on show here are the works of his contemporaries and pupils-the artist K. Bogaievskyi, M. Voloshin, M. Latri. There are also the works of modern painters whose art is associated with the landscape of the Eastern Crimea. The Gallery was founded in 1880 by I. Aivazovskyi whose life and creative career is reflected by the exhibition of the memorial-historical department. In 1900, according to I.K. Aivazovskyj’s will the Picture gallery became the property of the city of Feodosia. The bequest numbered 49 pictures of the painter. It was decided to begin collecting pictures of other masters of sea- scaping: Lagorio, A. Fessler, E. Magdesian, the painters of Feodosia K. Bogaievskyi, M. Latri, M. Voloshin. This determined the type of the Gallery: it was to become the collection of chiefly seascapes. The Gallery collection was enriched with 11 works of the West European painters and increased fivefold. In 1941, before occupation of Feodosia, the collection of pictures was evacuated to Yerevan in Armenia. The building of the Picture Gallery was badly damaged. On May2,1946 the museum was reopened for visitors. The stocks of the Gallery were enlarged by the paintings of Aivazovskyi, which were transferred from other museums or came from private collections. The romantic perception of the world was the nucleus of Aiva- zovskyi’s talent. The painter strove to single out not the typical but the exclusive. He created pictures distinguished by a particular sonority and vividness of colours. The sea all glittering with sunlight, quiet moonlit nights are depicted in them with a great skill. Among the works especially noteworthy are: “The St. George Monastery” (1846), “Evening in the Crimea. Yalta” (1848), “Venice” (1849), “The Seashore. Farewell”. (1851), “The Ships at the Roadstead”, (1851), “The Sea” (1853), “the Moonlit Night in the Crimea” (1859), “The Sea”, 1864, “A storm in the North Sea” (1866). The creation of these works was preceded by the spiritual atmosphere of Pushkin’s epoch. Just as Pushkin in poetry and K. Briullov in painting expressed freedom-loving ideas, so did Aivazovskyi convey in his romantic works the idea of being happy only in “storms of battle”. In 1858 the painter created his masterpiece “The Tenth Wave”. It is considered the painter’s most romantic work. This large canvas is on show at the Russian Museum in St. Peterburg. On the canvas amid the huge waves of the ocean the shipwrecked sailors trying to survive on the piece of the wreckage are depicted. The painter contrasts the will-power of a man with the violent force of the element. Filled with the pathos of the struggle it glorifies the courage of man before the smashing might of the raging ocean. The secret of the popularity of the “Tenth Wave” lies not in the dramatism of the situation but in the general life-asserting mood of the picture. The struggle and triumph of man over the element is the painter’s favourite theme. Among the works of Aivazovskyi there are a number of paintings, which have nothing in common with the marine subjects. The Ukrainian landscape pieces of Aivazovskyi reveal great lyricism and keen perception of everyday life. They attract one’s attention by a gentle poetical mood and beautiful sonorous colouring. In the 1870’s romanticism of Aivazovskyi was replaced by the more objective perception of nature. The best canvases of this period are “The Rainbow” (1873), “The Storm off Cape Aya” (1875), The Shipwreck” (1876). The ‘80’s marked the period of final making of realistic landscape. More works appeared in restrained range of colours. Such is “The Black Sea71881 / on show at the State Tretiakov Gallery. Its epic mood is associated with the majestically accords of the symphonic poem by N. Rymskyi-Korsakov “The Sea”. The talent of I. Aivazovskyi reached its height in the painting “Amid the Waves” created by the artist in 1898. The tendency for laconism of colour has been reflected in it. The beauty and might of the sea has been expressed in emotional colour range. The sea, the waves, the air are depicted with super skill. The emotional image of the sea is one of the masterpieces of world marine painting. The Feodosia Gallery boasts a large collection of Aivazovskyi’s drawings (over 270). Many of them can be regarded as independent works of art: “The Kerch Gulf with Schooners”, “An Oriental town”, “An Italian Town”. In the Gallery there is a small collection of seascapes painted by the artists of 19-20th centuries: A. Fessler, A. Hansen, A. Bogolybov, Surikov and A. Kuindzhi, K. Bogaievskyi, M. Voloshin. The seascape of today is marked by the works of Krainiov, Yakovlev, Barsamov, P. Skliarenko, and Olga Dudina. The Galley’s collection of the West European masters gives a general idea of the seascape painting of the 17-20th cc. It contains works by I. Shotel, P. Tanner, Melby and others.

IVAN AIVAZOVSKYI Ivan Aivazovskyi was born in Crimea in the seaside city of Feodosia on July 17,1817. The impressions of childhood determined his predilection for the seascape painting. In 1883 he entered the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts, In 1836 I. Aivazovskyi was introduced to O. Pushkin as a greatly promising artist. He made 10 depictions of the great poet. The picture known most of all is “Pushkin Bidding Farewell to the Sea” executed by Aivazovskyi jointly with lljia Repin. It took I. Aivazovskyi only four years to finish the six-year course of the Academy of Arts. He received a big gold medal and was granted a scholarship for training abroad. In Italy I. Aivazovskyi ranked with the best painters of Europe. The seascapes of the young painter appeared at the exhibitions in Rome, Paris, London and Amsterdam. They were highly appreciated by the viewers. In 1831. Aivazovskyi was awarded in France a gold medal. In Holland he was elected an Academician. It was a significant event since Holland is known to be the homeland of the seascape painting. I. Aivazovskyi came back from abroad a recognized master. He was made Academician of St, Petersburg Academy. The painter was attached to the Chief Naval Headquarters and was granted the right of wearing the full-dress coat of the Ministry of Navy. In 1845 the painter settled in Feodosia for good because of his deep affection for the Black Sea and his native city. He took the most active part in the city’s life. He created an art studio, opened a library and initiated the construction of the archeological museum. His tireless civic activities promoted the building of the seaport in Feodosia and the railway to it. I. Aivazovskyi strove to make his house a center of artistic life.In 1880 to the house where he lived and worked a large hall was added where his paintings were exhibited. This hall became one of the first picture galleries in the country. The house had a small stage where amateur theatricals were arranged. The Gallery was visited by the townspeople and the passengers of the steamers calling at the Feodosia seaport. Ivan Aivazovskyi retained till the last day of his life the ability to creative work without which he could not live. His words “To live means for me to work”, could have become the motto of his life. Aivazovskyi died in the night on April 18,1900 In 1900, according to I. Aivazovskyj’s will the Picture gallery became the property of the city of Feodosia.

FEDIR KRYCHEVSKY (1879-1947) Fedir Krychevsky holds a prominent place in the history of Ukrainian art. A painter of great distinction he made an invaluable contribution to the development of genre and portrait painting and did a series of monumental canvases of great public import. His aesthetic views and mastership were shaped at the turn of the century. Like Philip Malyavin, Olexander Arkhipov, Boris Kustodiyev, Olexander Murashko he tried to find a pictorial interpretation of a truly national theme. Yet he did not become a chronicler or illustrator of the people’s life and customs, nor were his goals simple ethnographic likeness or national colour. Cheap stylization was alien to hinu Instead, he imparted a monumental sweep and meaning to this theme, raising it from a mere projection of

folkways to the level of an epic. In the 20s and 30s the humanitarian principles of Krychevsky’s works developed more fully and extensively. Krychevsky was born on May, 10, 1879 in the town of Lebedyn in Kharkiv Province into the family of a medical attendant (doctor’s assistant. He spent his childhood in the village of Vorozhba, whose colourful folk rites and customs and beautiful scenery left an indelible mark on him for the rest of his life.' Krychevsky received his basic training at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, ((1896-1901), where he studied in the classes of such” noted masters as Valentyn Serov, Olexandr Archipov and Leonid Pasternak, and completed his education at the St. Petersburg Academy of Art (1907-1910) in the studio of the famous painter of battle pieces, Franz Rubo. His painting, “The Bride”, which he entered in the Academy’s competition, can be seen as a pictorial statement of his future creative path. It was a mature work of art, already reflecting Krychevsky’s inclinations and individuality. The traditional subject of a folk wedding rite is treated not as a customary genre piece, but on a monumental and epic plan. The nobility of the artist’s presentation of his heroes- cheerful young Ukrainian girls generating pride and a sense of inner dignity, spiritual beauty and vitality — speaks of Krychevsky’s desire to pay the highest tribute to characters taken from the people and to create types of great power and meaning. This was to become a prevailing tendency in his entire creativity. The artist never tore the links with his people and their life. The village of Shishaky in Poltava Region had a specially beneficial influence on him. Here he lived and worked for many years, inspired by the village’s scenery and ancient folkways and customs. His best oils were born in this picturesque part of Ukraine, where he constantly re- turned to revive his impressions and observations. In the artist’s vision this corner of Poltava Region was transformed into a generalized image of entire Ukraine, becoming a poetic symbol of his homeland and a nourishing source for his inspiration. His palette absorbed the decorative beauty and wealth of the patterns of Ukrainian carpets, em- broidery and pottery, enriching his works and lending them a distinctly national colouring. His leading theme — the people — became more optimistic and life-asserting and gained a new content and scope. The artist’s works of the 20’s are impressive for their boldness and novelty of treatment — seen best of all in his use of plastic lines and plane fresco forms. Drawing on the traditions of ancient mural painters, Krychevsky succeeded in imparting his.pictorial idiom with a laconic refinement and flexibility. Yet he did not canonize the techniques of the old masters and avoided direct stylization. Studying and absorbing their art, he achieved an organic fusion of tradition and modernity in his crea- tions. Krychevsky revealed a new facet in his career when he created his Kateryna (1939- 1941), a composition based on the motifs from T. Shevchenko’s poem of the same name. Its bold and unusual pictorial interpretation showed Krychevsky’s profound grasp of the poem’s message and figurative language. The spiritual beauty of Kateryna’s character, as well as her fine moral qualities are in remarkable harmony with the painting’s delicate drawing and refined colour. Krychevsky was an outstanding portraitist. His austerely balanced composition of the

portraits bear the unmistakable mark of his individual monumental and decorative style. His humanitarian principles were explicitly revealed in portraiture, in which he tirelessly paid tribute to MAN and in which he showed himself an heir of the Renaissance tradition. The painter combined his artistic career with teaching, to which he devoted much energy and effort, sparing neither time nor mastership since he regarded it an important part of his life. He took an active part in shaping the education programme at the Kyiv Art School ever since he joined it as an instructor in 1912, and later on, when he became its principal. He took part in organizing and creating his pet project — the Kyiv Art College. He was the first person in Ukraine to hold a Doctor’s Degree in art history and criticism. Krychevsky’s principles were adopted and developed by several generations of famous Ukrainian artists, such as Anatoliy Petrytsky, Volodymyr Kostetsky, Tetyana Yablonska, Georgy Melikhov, Yevgen Volobuiev to mention but a few.

8. Work in groups Read the poems by Ivan Drach and Mykola Vingranovsky and analyze them.

THE BALLAD OF THE SUNFLOWER The sunflower once was all arms and legs With a green body, prickly and rough. It raced with the breeze And scaled a pear tree, And its bosom with ripe fruit stuffed. It swam by the mill, on the sand lay still, With a catapult sparrows it potted. It hopped on one foot, From its ears water shook, Then suddenly saw the gorgeous sun, The glorious swarthy sun — Among golden clouds In a red country blouse, Riding a bicycle, Dodging the potholes in the sky... The sunflower froze there, Gaping forever in golden rapture: ‘Let me go ride your bike, old man! Or put me astride the frame, at least,

O, why be so mean, old man?!’ O poetry, my orange sun! Every second a youngster Discovers you for himself And becomes forever a flower of the sun. IvanDrach

THE FIRST LULLABY Sleep, my little baby, lulla-bye! Sleep, my child, my little brown-eyed worry! In warm dreams, above the fields or rye, High above it sunrise starts to hurry. Father’s is the happiest of souls. Sleep, my darling, it is very late. There, outside the window, restless roll All your future years — your future’ fate. Sleep, my little one, until your time. Shadows drowse; the maple, too, is sleeping. Only let Ukraine not sleep in you — Like the sky reflected in the Dnieper. Let it never sleep in you at all; It is yours and all, the world’s, my sweetest. Sleep, my little man, my little soul, Silver dreams are dropping from the tree tops. Mykola Vinhranovsky

Read the poem by Ivan Drach, where the poet compares poetry with the Sun and himself with the sunflower which grows and matures in the rays of the Sun. Do you feel alike? After you finish reading the story about Mykola Vingranovsky, try to imagine what helped him to grow and mature as an artist. The poem created by another famous Ukrainian poet Mykola Vingranovsky may help you understand how poetic images of Fedir Krychevsky were born.
