Snight in the style of Vasily Surikov

The Russian folk tale of the Snow Maiden has always occupied the minds of writers, artists and composers-to recall at least the play of Ostrovsky or the opera of Rimsky-Korsakov. Maybe the secret is that how the same mysterious soul, meek and immaculate, was reflected in it anywhere?
Creating illustrations for a fairy tale about a girl from snow, we were inspired by the paintings of Vasily Surikov, an artist, whose work is full of images and plots from the history of Russia, scenes of folk life.
You can guess which of the illustrations repeats the composition Boyars Morozova, and which - the famous painting Menshikov in Berezov?
Compare pictures from the book with the originals of the works of the great master, look for common details and catch the differences, discuss the color palette and features of the era. To do this, you do not need to be an artillery, it is enough to get carried away with a fairy tale and illustrations.
At the end of the book you can read about the main stages of the artist’s creative development and find out interesting facts about him. Here we also placed reproductions of the original works that inspired our illustrator. And also enter the camera on the QR code and visit our free VoiceBook virtual Museum. In the museum’s hall you can approach the paintings, consider them and listen to an audio guide developed by the art specialist specifically for children!
