Karl Bryullov became famous as a master of portrait, historical, and genre painting. The lecture will discuss the artist's work, his unique style, and favorite themes. On October 30, as part of the series "Great Masters of Russian Painting," a lecture dedicated to Karl Bryullov will take place - the author of paintings such as "The Last Day of Pompeii," "Italian Noon," "The Horsewoman," "The Dream of Grandmother and Granddaughter," "Portrait of the Shishmarev Sisters," and others. Art historian Lyudmila Markina will pay special attention to the portrait in the master's work. Interestingly, his works in this genre lack the characteristic 18th-century interest in the model's status. For the artist, the main thing is to convey the beauty and harmony of the image, which connects his canvases with the works of representatives of early Russian romanticism. Where to go in Moscow will be suggested by KUDAGO.
