In the artist"s workshop

Here is a book of entertaining conversations about Russian painting, addressed to children 6-12 years old and their parents. Together with the author, we seem to make our way into the artist’s workshop and try to spy on how the great masters worked, what stories they portrayed and what emotions we wanted to convey to us. The story of recognized masterpieces and paintings, which are less known, but deserve close attention, is built in order of increasing complexity - from simpler and more pastoral plots, we turn to more dramatic and intricate. The classical art, which we get acquainted on the pages of this album, teaches to love and worry - this is its great strength and enduring value
