Feast of Kings, 1913
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Pavel Nikolaevich Filonov that transports viewers to an eerie and surreal banquet. Measuring an impressive 175x215 cm, this masterpiece can be found in the State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. In this haunting composition, Filonov skillfully combines elements of symbolism and futurism to create a nightmarish scene. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident as he depicts a grand feast with royal guests seated around a table adorned with fish and other delicacies. However, upon closer inspection, the seemingly opulent gathering takes on a sinister tone. Gruesome animal figures intermingle with human-like creatures, blurring the boundaries between man and beast. This juxtaposition adds an unsettling quality to the artwork. Filonov's "Feast of Kings" challenges traditional notions of beauty and explores themes of mortality and the primal instincts within us all. It serves as a stark reminder that even in moments of indulgence and celebration, there is always an undercurrent of darkness lurking beneath the surface. This striking painting invites viewers into its enigmatic world where reality merges with imagination. Its thought-provoking imagery continues to captivate audiences today, making it one of Filonov's most renowned works in which his unique artistic vision truly shines through.
