The Trinity. March

author

Konstantin Yuon

description

Mediums: oil, canvas.
Location: The State Russian Museum, St. Petersburg (Russia).

The town, according to Yuon, “slightly resembling a toy”, is so colourful, clean and attractive to the artist that he lived there for a long time. Just like a child, the artist admired the clear red towers that contrast with the green roofs, painted pink churches, gold and blue domes. The combination of colours does not need to be invented – it is so festive in real. The artist created several versions of the painting named “The Trinity” – we see parishioners on foot, riding in carts or sleighs. The master’s favourite architectural landscapes, dense in colour and clear in composition, give an idea of ​​the spiritual and historical base of the people.
