Petr Ivanovich Petrovichev is a painter and teacher. He was born into a peasant family. The boy’s ability to draw was noticed in his early childhood. From 1888 to 1892, he studied under the tutorship of restorers at the Rostov Museum of Church Antiquities. He then entered the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture.

Petr Ivanovich Petrovichev was undoubtedly a talented and original artist who inspired grateful students. For many years he taught at the Moscow Art School, which was renamed the Memory of 1905 School of Art.

Petrovichev lived a long, difficult and interesting life. He never sat still, traveled a lot around the country and each time brought back many studies and completed landscapes. He felt very attached to the nature of Central Russia. All his life he followed the precept of his beloved teacher Isaac Levitan, who said: “A picture, what is it? It is a snippet of nature filtered through the artist’s temperament, and if it is not there, then it is an empty place.”

The Russian collection of the National Art Museum of the Sakha Republic includes three paintings by Petr Ivanovich Petrovichev, which portray him as a talented, perceptive and original artist with his own themes and his unique figurative system.

Petrovichev’s works are similar to studies, while his very method of layering colors makes the painting material, tangible. These features are especially evident in the still life “Flowers”.

His short curly brush stroke seems to touch each petal of the lush flowers, so tangibly they appear on the picturesque surface of the canvas. The old porcelain vase looks very palpable. Magnificent roses are deliberately large, they fill most of the picture; in some places they even seem to be escaping its space.

The process of the artist’s work is clearly visible in the still life. The painting is multi-layered, the shape of the flowers is created with separate multidirectional brush strokes. The bouquet of roses is painted in soft pink and crimson-ruby tones. The artist chose front lighting to illuminate the bouquet, emphasizing the beauty of the flowers.
