Crimean peninsula its beauty of the landscape and mild climate at all times attracted people of art: artists and poets, directors, actors and musicians. Many went to Crimea on vacation and for creative inspiration. Delightful landscapes still attract the masters of the brush. It's about artists whose work was associated with this unique place.
Each of the painters who worked in the Crimea found in him something of his own, cherished and unusual. The works of these authors have become a kind of connecting link connecting the viewer with the Crimean landscape, sometimes completely unknown to him, but awakening in him feelings and experiences associated with the ineradicable power of man's love for nature.
And since the culture and art of the peninsula developed under the influence of many cultural traditions of the peoples who inhabited this land at different times, all their best achievements in architecture and creativity were concentrated here.
During the 19th century, representatives of different artistic trends worked in Crimea, and the Crimean nature found a very diverse reflection in their works. The artistic fever that swept the peninsula at the end of the 19th century continues to this day.
Almost all graduates of the Imperial Academy of Arts and other educational art institutions visited Crimea in their time and left in their legacy a lot of works dedicated to the paradise of the earth. In the museums of Moscow and St. Petersburg, a large number of sketches, landscape sketches and paintings by the best representatives of Russian fine arts are collected.
Mikhail Matveevich Ivanov (1748-1823)
The first artist to capture in his works the extraordinary beauty of the Crimean landscape, he wrote not by his own inspiration, but by the Highest command. As a serviceman, Ivanov arrived on the peninsula following his patron Grigory Potemkin to compile for Catherine the Great a kind of "photo report" about the newly annexed lands, as they said at the time, "remove" the territory. And it was in Ivanov's watercolors that the empress first saw the Crimea.
Chernetsov Nikanor Grigorievich (1804-1879)
Ivan Konstantinovich Aivazovsky (1817-1900)
Born in Crimea, Ivan Aivazovsky was in love with the sea from early childhood, so the artist dedicated a huge number of his canvases to the Crimea, an amazing place where he lived all his life.
Ivan Ivanovich Shishkin (1832-1898)
Russian painter Ivan Shishkin had a chance to visit Crimea several times. As a result, a few local landscapes, as well as many unfinished graphic sketches.
Isaac Ilyich Levitan (1860-1900)
Arseny Ivanovich Meshchersky (1834-1902)
Arkhip Ivanovich Kuindzhi (1942-1910)
There are many blank spots in the biography of Arkhip Kuindzhi. It is known that his ancestors - Greek Christians - came from the Crimea. They lived in the region of Bakhchisarai, and after the annexation of the Crimea ended up in the Sea of Azov. Arkhip was born on the outskirts of Mariupol. But he carried his love for the Crimea through his whole life.
Nikolay Alexandrovich Yaroshenko (1846-1898)
Apollinary Mikhailovich Vasnetsov (1856-1933)
Welts Ivan Avgustovich (1866-1926)
Vladimir Donatovich Orlovsky (1842-1914)
Kalmykov Grigory Odisseevich (1873-1942)
The artist, originally from Kerch, was a student of IK Aivazovsky, and later a graduate of the Imperial Academy of Arts.
Maximilian Alexandrovich Voloshin (1877-1932)
Maximilian Voloshin is a landscape painter, art and literary critic, poet, philosopher, a person who occupied a special place in Crimean life. At the age of 16, he moved with his mother to Koktebel, and since then Crimea has become his second homeland.
And I immediately remember the wonderful lines about Koktebel of the author of the paintings:
Sviridov Sergey Alekseevich (born in 1964)
Modern artist Sergei Sviridov was born, lives and works in the city of Simferopol.
Anatoly Nikolaevich Sen (born in 1965)
Andrey Ambursky (born 1974)
Truly, how can one fail to recall the amazing lines of Alexander Pushkin:
Moreover, for all that, this is only the smallest fraction of what has been created by the masters of the brush over the past 200 years. More than one century will pass, but interest in the paradise of the earth is unlikely to dry up.
Amazing selection of summer landscapes Russian classical artists creates a wonderful atmosphere and mood, despite the fact that some of the creative people do not like this time of the year.

It was the best way for people to see and show themselves for that time.

Balls of the 18th - 19th centuries are a separate world in which success was accompanied by the most gallant and courteous gentlemen, and the ladies needed not only the grace of dress and exquisite manners
