EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the painting "Peasant Woman by a Brook" created in 1912 by Russian artist Bogdanov-Belsky. The oil on canvas masterpiece measures 100.3x67.3 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The artwork depicts a rural scene, with a destitute peasant woman standing alone by a tranquil brook. Dressed in traditional attire, she wears a headscarf and an off-the-shoulder garment that reflects the poverty of her circumstances. With hands on her hips, she gazes at the surrounding natural space, perhaps contemplating the hardships of her life. The artist's skillful use of color brings this early twentieth-century piece to life, with vibrant shades of green dominating the countryside backdrop. The woman's posture and expression convey both strength and oppression simultaneously - an evocative portrayal that speaks to social issues prevalent during that era. Bogdanov-Belsky's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, from the intricate crochet work on the woman's clothing to the delicate rendering of trees along the brookside. Through his artistry, he captures not only nature's beauty but also human resilience amidst adversity. This photograph allows us to appreciate this significant artwork by one of Russia's renowned artists while providing insight into early twentieth-century French art influences on Bogdanov-Belsky’s style. It serves as a poignant reminder of historical struggles faced by peasants and invites contemplation about societal inequalities that persist even today.
