Alexander Gine
Fishermen’s Bargets by the Sea
#11
The talented painter Alexander Gine was predicted to have a great future by teachers.

He’s got a very good talent, promising a great and handsome artist. I like Gine’s pictures very much, and what surprises me is to what extent he has mastered the technique, and the drawing is beautiful, and they are boldly and easily written. Well done!
The artist’s teacher Apollo Mokritsky in a letter to his best friend Ivan Shishkin

Gine studied together with Shishkin at the gymnasium in Kazan. Then Shishkin went on to study painting at the Imperial Academy of Arts in St. Petersburg, and Gine initially entered the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. But then, following the advice of a friend, he also moved to St. Petersburg, where he attended courses at the Imperial Academy of Arts for almost ten years as an external student. 

In 1857, Ivan Shishkin, his best friend, wrote to his parents about Gine: ‘…my former gymnasium friend, who also did not finish his course, entered the Academy, a man with talent, and he will succeed, his surname is Gine… he’s a good guy…’ 

However, the prophecies were not meant to come true. The artist indeed made progress. In 1865, he graduated from the Academy as a well-known landscape painter. Since 1858 he regularly participated in academic exhibitions, and in 1878 his artworks were exhibited at the World Exhibition in Paris. 

Although Gine had made a great contribution to the Russian art of the XIX century, he never reached the level of popularity Shishkin had achieved. 

Today there are still quite a few white spots in the artist’s biography. For example, it is not known exactly where he was born. His legacy has not been fully studied either. 

Gine’s paintings bear a clear mark of romanticism, which was popular in Russia in the first half of the XIX century. Gine often travelled to Valaam where he wrote some of his best works, loved to draw views of the Gulf of Finland and Lake Ladoga. Many of his works leave a feeling of peace and harmony. This effect is achieved through the use of warm shades and soft play of light and shade. 

The work Fishermen’s Badgers by the Sea depicts a stormy sea. But there’s nothing threatening about it. We’re watching the water from afar, from a safe distance. At the same time, the formidable clouds in the picture are already beginning to dissipate and pass the rays of the bright sun that is about to light up the cold water surface again.
