Nikolay Ivanovich Kostrov was born in the village of Vasilyeskoye into the family of a priest. He received his primary education in a theological seminary. After that, he briefly attended Kazan University. In 1922, Nikolay entered the Petrograd Academy of Arts, where he signed up for the workshop on spatial realism led by Professor Mikhail Vasilyevich Matyushin.

It was during his studies at the Academy of Arts that Nikolay Kostrov created this painting called “Cabbage”. At that time, he had just begun to take part in exhibitions and worked mainly as a painter.

Mikhail Matyushin noted,

Kolya Kostrov amazes me with his infinite extensive energy. He paints four studies a day and makes several more drawings. In our fast-paced world, this is the only way to work. He will make a wonderful artist and become a great figure. But he is destined to be a devotee. Your work is not creative enough if you carry the culture of all generations within you. It is also vital to push this culture further yourself: Kolya never makes use of anything without putting in his own effort. His sea sketches are filled with the power of youth and are so good! He managed to grasp what the space around us and our actions in it are all about.

Mikhail Matyushin’s principle was the harmony between man and nature. He aspired “to live the life of nature itself, to participate in it, ” hence his serious study of Impressionism and the use of Impressionist techniques.

After graduating from the Academy, Nikolay Kostrov served for three years on the Komsomolets ship in Kronstadt. His works from the “Fleet” series were exhibited at the 1930 exhibition of the Collective of Extended Observation.

In 1932, he became a member of the Union of Artists and began going on creative trips to Kazakhstan, the White Sea, the Barents Sea, and Ukraine. After the Great Patriotic War, he continued his creative trips, visiting Kirov Oblast (1958), Armenia (1961), Norway and the Danube River (1963–1964), Vologda Oblast (1971), Ukraine (1972), and Krasnodar Krai (1973). Each trip inspired a large series of works.

Nikolay Kostrov spent almost 40 years working in the suburban settlement near the Oredezh River near Leningrad. Until the 1930s, he was mainly known as a painter, but then he gradually switched to the graphic arts. Starting in 1932, he illustrated children’s books, collaborated with the Experimental Graphic Studio of the Union of Artists, and preferred working in the techniques of color lithography, linocut and etching.
