Alexey Bogolyubov
Écouen
#2
Alexey Bogolyubov painted his sketch Écouen in the fall of 1880. The work belongs to the genre of landscape. Écouen is the name of an old town in the North-East of France, not far from Paris.

#3
The artist lived in France from 1873 through the end of his life. He often went out to suburbs, sketching in the plain air. A distinguishing feature of his art was a combination of experiences of the two cultures: Russian tradition of the national landscape and heritage of French realist painters. In the Écouen area Bogolyubov painted several works, including his sketches A Plowed Field in Écouen and Footpath. Écouen.

In this picture, Bogolyubov painted himself: an artist painting sketches from nature. He has a folding easel in front of him. A large white umbrella covers him from the sun. In the background, there are people harvesting crops.
Warm colors in the bottom of the painting: yellow grass, the figure of the artist, smoothly transit into cold colors used for painting the sky and the skyline of the town. To capture daylight illumination, the painter mixed ochre, green and blue pigments.
#6
In Paris, Bogolyubov was a mentor for graduates of the Academy of Fine Arts who arrived there on a pension trip. The right to make such a trip used to be granted to those graduates of the Academy of Fine Arts, who were awarded a Gold Medal for their graduation work. Best students used to be sent to Europe to study architecture and fine arts of local craftsmen. The name of such a trip comes from the word ‘pension’ that used to mean a scholarship paid to artists travelling abroad. Bogolyubov helped young pensioner artists to arrange exhibitions and auctions.
#7
In France Bogolyubov for the first time encountered a publicly accessible museum of fine arts, and he decided to bring this notion to Russia. In addition, he had always wanted to revive the name of his beloved grandfather: the writer and poet Alexander Radishchev. Therefore, in 1885, he established the first provincial publicly accessible museum: the Radishchev Museum. Apart from his own paintings, the museum received works by his pensioner apprentices: Ivan Shishkin, Ilya Repin and many others.
