EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant and evocative portrait captures the final moments of one of Russia's greatest literary figures, Alexander Pushkin. Created by artist Alexander Alexeyevich Koslov in 1837, this pencil, gouache, and ink masterpiece showcases the raw emotions surrounding Pushkin's untimely death at the age of 37. The image depicts Pushkin lying on his deathbed, dressed in a somber black jacket with his head gently resting on a pillow. The artist skillfully conveys the fragility and vulnerability of the renowned poet as he faces his imminent demise. Every stroke of Koslov's brush seems to capture not only Pushkin's physical decline but also the weighty significance of his contributions to Russian literature. Pushkin is widely regarded as one of Russia's most influential writers, known for his lyrical poetry and groundbreaking novels. His tragic end only adds to the mystique surrounding his life and work. This posthumous portrayal serves as a powerful reminder of both Pushkin's immense talent and the fleeting nature of human existence. Preserved within the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art in Moscow, this print offers viewers an intimate glimpse into history while honoring a literary giant who continues to inspire generations with his words even after two centuries have passed since his passing.
