Read on
A magical kingdom, a fantasy land, or simply home to a painter who loved Russian folklore, artist Viktor Vasnetsov's house is a place where fairytales come to life.
Born in 1848, Vasnetsov was the son of a village priest. He studied art in St. Petersburg, and his early works were anything but fairytale-inspired, depicting contemporary life until the late 1870s. At that time, Vasnetsov began illustrating Russian folk tales, going on to become a key figure in the Russian Revival movement -- a 19th century style based on renewed interest in traditional Russian architecture.

Ivan YakovleIvich Bilibin (Russian: Ива́н Я́ковлевич Били́бин, IPA: [ɪˈvan ˈjakəvlʲɪvʲɪt͡ɕ bʲɪˈlʲibʲɪn]; 16 August [O.S. 4 August] 1876 – 7 February 1942) was a 20th-century illustrator and stage designer who took part in the Mir iskusstva, contributed to the Ballets Russes, co-founded the Union of Russian Painters (Russian: Сою́з ру́сских худо́жников) and from 1937 was a member of the Artists' Union of the USSR. Throughout his career, he was inspired by Slavic folklore.
Ivan Bilibin was born in Tarkhovka, a suburb of St. Petersburg. He studied in 1898 at Anton Ažbe Art School in Munich, then under Ilya Repin in St. Petersburg. After graduating in May 1900 he went to Munich, where he completed his training with the painter Anton Ažbe. In 1902–1904 Bilibin travelled in the Russian North, where he became fascinated with old wooden architecture and Russian folklore. In the period 1902 to 1904, he also went to the ethnographic section of the museum of Alexander III to collect Ethnographic material and to photograph monuments of old village architecture in the Vologda, Archangelsk region, Tver; Skaja; olonezkaja and Petrozavodsk. He published his findings in the monograph Folk Arts of the Russian North in 1904. Another influence on his art was traditional Japanese prints.
After the formation of the artists' association Mir Iskusstva, where he was an active member, his entry into the newspaper and book graphics scene began with a commission for the design of magazine Mir Iskusstva in 1899. Artistic design of other magazines such as Dog Rose (Шиповник) and expenditure of the Moscow publishing house followed. Bilibin gained renown in 1899, when he released his illustrations of Russian fairy tales. During the Russian Revolution of 1905, he drew revolutionary cartoons, especially for the magazine "Župel" (Жупелъ), which in 1906 became prohibited. He would further serve as the designer for the 1909 première production of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's The Golden Cockerel.
After the October Revolution in 1917, he left Russia after the revolution proved alien to him. After brief stints in Cairo and Alexandria, he settled in Paris in 1925, where he took to decorating private mansions and Orthodox churches. He still longed for his homeland and, after decorating the Soviet Embassy in 1936, he returned to Soviet Russia, delivering lectures at the Russian Academy of Arts until 1941. Bilibin died during the Siege of Leningrad and was buried in a collective grave.
In 1902 Bilibin married his former student, the Irish-Russian painter Mary Chambers (Мария Яковлевна Чемберс). They had two sons; Alexander (1903) and Ivan (1908). In 1912 he again married a former student, the art school graduate Renée O'Connell (Рене Рудольфовна О'Коннель), granddaughter of Daniel O'Connell. In 1923 he married the painter Alexandra Shchyekatikhina-Pototskaya (Александра Васильевна Щекатихина-Потоцкая), with whom he had a joint exhibition in Amsterdam in 1929.
Ivan YakovleIvich Bilibin（俄語：ИванЯковлевичБилибин，IPA：[ɪvanjakəvlʲɪvʲɪt͡ɕbʲɪlʲibʲɪn]; 8月16日[OS 8月] 1876年 - 1942年2月7日）是20世紀的插畫家和舞台設計師，參加了Mir iskusstva， Ballets Russes，共同創辦了俄羅斯畫家聯盟（俄語：Союзрусскиххудожников），並從1937年起成為蘇聯藝術家聯盟的成員。在整個職業生涯中，他都受到了斯拉夫民俗的啟發 。
伊万·比利賓（Ivan Bilibin）出生在聖彼得堡郊區的塔爾霍夫卡（Tarkhovka）。他於1898年在慕尼黑的AntonAžbe藝術學校學習，然後在聖彼得堡的伊利亞·列賓（Ilya Repin）之下學習。 1900年5月畢業後，他去了慕尼黑，在那裡他完成了與畫家安東Ažbe的培訓。 1902年至1904年，比利賓在俄羅斯北部旅行，在那裡他著迷於舊木結構和俄羅斯民間傳說。在1902年到1904年期間，他還前往亞歷山大三世博物館的民族志部分，收集民族志材料，拍攝特維爾阿爾漢格爾斯克地區沃洛格達的古村落建築紀念碑; Skaja; olonezkaja和彼得羅扎沃茨克。他在1904年在俄羅斯北方的民間藝術專著上發表了他的發現。他的藝術的另一個影響是傳統的日本版畫。
藝術家協會Mir Iskusstva（他是活躍成員）的成立之後，他進入報紙和書籍圖形界開始於1899年為Mir Iskusstva雜誌設計的委員會。其他雜誌的藝術設計，如Dog Rose （Шиповник）和莫斯科出版社的支出。比利賓在1899年獲得了名聲，當時他釋放了他對俄羅斯童話故事的插圖。在1905年俄國革命期間，他畫了革命漫畫，特別是1906年被禁止的“Župel”雜誌（Жупелъ）。他將進一步擔任1909年尼古拉·里姆斯基 - 科薩科夫（Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov）的“金雞公雞”（The Golden Cockerel）首映的設計師。
1917年十月革命之後，革命後的他離開了俄羅斯，離開了俄羅斯。在開羅和亞歷山大進行短暫的工作後，他於1925年在巴黎定居，在那裡他去裝飾私人住宅和東正教教堂。他仍然渴望自己的家園，1936年裝修蘇聯大使館後，他回到蘇聯俄羅斯，直到1941年在俄羅斯藝術學院講課。比列林在列寧格勒圍困期間死亡，被埋葬在一個集體墳墓。
1902年比利賓娶了他的前學生，愛爾蘭和俄羅斯的畫家瑪麗·錢伯斯（МарияЯковлевнаЧемберс）。他們有兩個兒子。亞歷山大（1903）和伊凡（1908）。 1912年，他再次娶了一名前學生，藝術學院畢業生RenéeO'Connell（丹尼·奧康奈爾的孫女）。 1923年，他娶了畫家亞歷山德拉Shchyekatikhina-Pototskaya（АлександраВасильевнаЩекатихина-Потоцкая），與他在1929年在阿姆斯特丹聯合展覽。

The State Tretyakov Gallery is the foremost gallery of Russian fine art in the world. The collection was begun in 1856 when the Moscow merchant Pavel Mikhailovich Tretyakov acquired works by Russian artists of his day with the aim of creating a collection, which might later grow into a museum of national art. In 1892, Tretyakov presented his already famous collection of approximately 2,000 works (1,362 paintings, 526 drawings, and 9 sculptures) to the Russian nation.
The façade of the gallery building was designed by the painter Viktor Vasnetsov in a peculiar Russian fairy-tale style. It was built in 1902–04.
Today, the gallery extends to several neighboring buildings, including the 17th-century church of St. Nicholas in Tolmachi. There are in excess of 130,000 exhibits and includes the collection of George Costakis, the Russian born Greek collector of Modern Russian avant-garde art.
This is a wonderful gallery and always spend a day here when in Moscow....
Vasily Perov: A collection of 138 paintings (HD)
Vasily Perov: A collection of 138 paintings (HD)
Description: Outstanding painter Vasily Perov was one of the founders of Peredvizhniki (aka the Wanderers or Itinerants) - a group of Russian realist painters, who travelled with their exhibitions from town to town. His most famous works include Troika and Hunters at Rest, and portraits of Nikolay Ostrovsky and Fyodor Dostoevsky.
Vasily Grigoryevich Perov was born in the town of Tobolsk in 1834. His father was the provincial public prosecutor baron G.К. von Kridiner. However, having been born prior the marriage of his parents, the boy got the surname of his godfather - Vasilyev. And yet, for some reasons the artist disliked the surname and subsequently changed it to Perov, after the nickname given to him in childhood for his excellence in calligraphy.
The future artist received his first painting lessons at Alexander Stupin Art School in Arzamas. Afterwards he moved to Moscow and entered the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. In different years the Imperial Academy of Arts marked him with a number of awards. In 1861 his painting Sermon in a Village gained Perov the major gold medal and the opportunity to go for a journey abroad at public expense: in 1862 he went to Europe and visited Paris and a number of cities in Germany.
The trip resulted in a range of paintings representing scenes of European street life: the Vendor of statuettes, the Savoyard, the Organ-Grinder in Paris, the Musicians and the Bystanders, and the Paris Ragpickers.
Having returned to Moscow early, from 1865 to 1871 Perov created his masterpieces: The Queue at The Fountain, A Meal in the Monastery, Last Journey, Troika, the Lent Monday, Arrival of a New Governess in a Merchant House, the Drawing Teacher, A Scene at the Railroad, the Last Tavern at Town Gate, the Birdcatcher, the Fisherman, and the Hunters at Rest.
In 1866 Vasily Perov got the academician’s degree, and in 1871 a position a professor at Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. Approximately at the same time he joined the Itineraries and their traveling exhibitions.
Perov’s teaching at Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture had a great influence on nurturing and upbringing of young artists. An entire galaxy of prominent Russian painters grew up under his direct guidance.
The artist died of tuberculosis on June 10 (May 29 Old Style) 1882 in Kuzminki Village (nowadays a part of Moscow) and was laid to rest at Donskoe Cemetery.

Москва. Новоспасский монастырь. Новоспасский пруд. Обзор города.
Москва. Новоспасский пруд — искусственный водоём в центре Москвы. В 1750 году на берегу Москвы-реки в центре города на современном местоположении пруда были вырыты два водоема: больший имел прямоугольную форму, а меньший — квадратную. В ходе этих работ также был облагорожен старый пруд с островом в центре. Пруды были связаны друг с другом и с Москвой-рекой системой подземных труб.
До наших дней от этой системы дошёл лишь один водоём прямоугольной формы — это и есть Новоспасский пруд.Его площадь составляет 1,5 га, средняя глубина — 2,5 метра. Питание осуществляется за счёт грунтовых и поверхностных вод. Чтобы предотвратить водную эрозию, береговые линии укрепили железобетонной конструкцией.
Вокруг пруда расположен небольшой парк, это популярное место отдыха! Купание в Новоспасском пруду не разрешено, однако этот запрет часто нарушают. С территории пруда открывается вид на Московский международный дом музыки с одной стороны – за Москвой рекой и Новоспасский монастырь с противоположной. Новоспасский мужской монастырь, один из 10 действующих в Москве, принадлежит Русской православной церкви. Не поверите - Образованная в 13 веке тихая монашеская обитель за много веков превратилась в законченный архитектурный ансамбль. Это удивительный памятник древней истории православия на Руси, и обитель монашеской общины, живущей по своим строгим правилам и распорядку. В соборе и храмах монастыря проводятся регулярные богослужения.
Основан в 1490 году с именем Спаса Нового Великим князем Иваном III, который перевёл за город братию кремлёвского монастыря Спаса на Бору. Последний возник около 1330 года при Великом князе Иване Калите.
Первый каменный собор Спаса Преображения построен был в 1494 году. Монастырь начал пользоваться царской благосклонностью и приобретать современный облик после прихода к власти Романовых, чья родовая усыпальница издавна находилась в Новоспасском монастыре.
Монастырь был закрыт в 1918 году, и в том же году на его территории был устроен концентрационный лагерь. Памятники монастыря, имевшие музейное значение, были приписаны к музею Симонова монастыря. В 1920-х годах архитектор Сергей Родионов провёл реставрацию построек монастыря. В 1925 году территорию монастыря занимал Второй женский исправительный дом. Монастырское кладбище снесено в 1927—1930 годах.
С 1935 года территорией монастыря ведало хозяйственное управление НКВД. Все монастырские постройки были переоборудованы для хозяйственных нужд или под жильё. Выселение жильцов началось в 1960 году. В 1968 году было принято решение организовать на базе монастыря «музей истории и современной практики реставрационного дела в СССР».
Восстановительные работы затянулись на многие годы. В соборе планировалось открыть Музей истории реставрации. Большой реставрационный центр на территории монастыря существовал с 1985 до конца 1990 года, когда решено было вернуть монастырь Московской патриархии.
Возрождение монашеской жизни началось в апреле 1991 года. В июле того же года создан мужской хор Новоспасского монастыря.
В 1995 году сюда был перенесён прах великого князя Сергея Александровича, убитого за 90 лет до этого террористом Иваном Каляевым. На территории монастыря воздвигнут памятный крест, воссозданный по сохранившемуся проекту Виктора Васнецова, — точная копия памятника, существовавшего в Кремле.
В феврале 2014 года патриарх Кирилл освятил 16-тонный «Романовский» колокол, который был отлит взамен уничтоженного в 20 веке исторического колокола.

Alexander Ivanov (1806-1858) A collection of paintings 4K Ultra HD
Alexander Andreyevich Ivanov (Russian: Алекса́ндр Андре́евич Ива́нов; July 28 (1806-1858) was a Russian painter who adhered to the waning tradition of Neoclassicism.
He was born and died in St. Petersburg.
Ivanov studied together with Karl Briullov at the Imperial Academy of Arts under his father, Andrey Ivanovich Ivanov. He spent most of his life in Rome where he befriended Gogol and was influenced by the Nazarenes.
He has been called the master of one work, for it took 20 years to complete his magnum opus, The Appearance of Christ Before the People (1837–57), now in the Tretyakov Gallery at Moscow.
Critical judgement about Ivanov improved in the following generation.
Some of the numerous sketches he had prepared for The Appearance have been recognised as masterpieces in their own right.
The most comprehensive collection of his works can be viewed at the Russian Museum in St. Petersburg.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

SUMMARY
=======
Russia (Russian: Росси́я, tr. Rossiya, IPA: [rɐˈsʲijə]), officially the Russian Federation (Russian: Росси́йская Федера́ция, tr. Rossiyskaya Federatsiya, IPA: [rɐˈsʲijskəjə fʲɪdʲɪˈratsɨjə]), is a transcontinental country in Eastern Europe and North Asia. At 17,125,200 square kilometres (6,612,100 sq mi), Russia is by a considerable margin the largest country in the world by area, covering more than one-eighth of the Earth's inhabited land area, and the ninth most populous, with about 146.77 million people as of 2019, including Crimea. About 77% of the population live in the western, European part of the country. Russia's capital, Moscow, is one of the largest cities in the world and the second largest city in Europe; other major cities include Saint Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Yekaterinburg and Nizhny Novgorod. Extending across the entirety of Northern Asia and much of Eastern Europe, Russia spans eleven time zones and incorporates a wide range of environments and landforms. From northwest to southeast, Russia shares land borders with Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland (both with Kaliningrad Oblast), Belarus, Ukraine, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, China, Mongolia and North Korea. It shares maritime borders with Japan by the Sea of Okhotsk and the U.S. state of Alaska across the Bering Strait. However, Russia recognises two more countries that border it, Abkhazia and South Ossetia, both of which are internationally recognized as parts of Georgia.
The East Slavs emerged as a recognizable group in Europe between the 3rd and 8th centuries AD. Founded and ruled by a Varangian warrior elite and their descendants, the medieval state of Rus arose in the 9th century. In 988 it adopted Orthodox Christianity from the Byzantine Empire, beginning the synthesis of Byzantine and Slavic cultures that defined Russian culture for the next millennium. Rus ultimately disintegrated into a number of smaller states; most of the Rus' lands were overrun by the Mongol invasion and became tributaries of the nomadic Golden Horde in the 13th century. The Grand Duchy of Moscow gradually reunified the surrounding Russian principalities and achieved independence from the Golden Horde. By the 18th century, the nation had greatly expanded through conquest, annexation, and exploration to become the Russian Empire, wh ...

SUMMARY

Russia (Russian: Росси́я, tr. Rossiya, IPA: [rɐˈsʲijə]), officially the Russian Federation (Russian: Росси́йская Федера́ция, tr. Rossiyskaya Federatsiya, IPA: [rɐˈsʲijskəjə fʲɪdʲɪˈratsɨjə]), is a country in Eurasia. At 17,125,200 square kilometres (6,612,100 sq mi), Russia is the largest country in the world by area, covering more than one-eighth of the Earth's inhabited land area, and the ninth most populous, with about 144.5 million people as of 2018, excluding Crimea. About 77% of the population live in the western, European part of the country. Russia's capital, Moscow, is the largest metropolitan area in Europe proper and one of the largest cities in the world; other major cities include Saint Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Yekaterinburg and Nizhny Novgorod. Extending across the entirety of Northern Asia and much of Eastern Europe, Russia spans eleven time zones and incorporates a wide range of environments and landforms. From northwest to southeast, Russia shares land borders with Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland (both with Kaliningrad Oblast), Belarus, Ukraine, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, China, Mongolia and North Korea. It shares maritime borders with Japan by the Sea of Okhotsk and the U.S. state of Alaska across the Bering Strait. However, Russia recognises two more countries that border it, Abkhazia and South Ossetia, both of which are internationally recognized as parts of Georgia.
The East Slavs emerged as a recognizable group in Europe between the 3rd and 8th centuries AD. Founded and ruled by a Varangian warrior elite and their descendants, the medieval state of Rus arose in the 9th century. In 988 it adopted Orthodox Christianity from the Byzantine Empire, beginning the synthesis of Byzantine and Slavic cultures that defined Russian culture for the next millennium. Rus' ultimately disintegrated into a number of smaller states; most of the Rus' lands were overrun by the Mongol invasion and became tributaries of the nomadic Golden Horde in the 13th century. The Grand Duchy of Moscow gradually reunified the surrounding Russian principalities, achieved independence from the Golden Horde. By the 18th century, the nation had greatly expanded through conquest, annexation, and exploration to become the Russian Empire, which was the third largest empire in history, stretching from Poland on the west to Alaska on th ...
