EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the introspective and thoughtful gaze of Russian poet, Sergei Mitrofanovich Gorodetsky (1884-1967), in an image taken by renowned photographer Karl Karlovich Bulla (1853-1929) during the 1910s. The black and white silver gelatin photograph showcases Gorodetsky's expressive features, with furrowed brows and a serious expression that speaks to the depth of his artistic soul. Born in Moscow, Gorodetsky was a prominent figure in the Russian literary scene, known for his innovative use of language and exploration of modernist themes. His works were published in various literary journals and anthologies, and he was a member of the Symbolist movement, which emphasized the importance of emotion and the supernatural in art. Bulla, a master of portraiture, expertly captured the essence of Gorodetsky's complex personality in this striking image. The photographer's use of chiaroscuro lighting and careful composition creates a sense of depth and dimension, drawing the viewer in and inviting them to explore the poet's inner world. This photograph is a testament to the powerful connection between the written word and the visual image, and serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of both Gorodetsky and Bulla in Russian culture. The image is part of a private collection and is an excellent example of the fine art of silver gelatin photography.
