Pyotr Petrovichev
Ice Motion on the Moskva River
#2
Artist Pyotr Petrovichev painted the lyrical landscape Ice Motion on the Moskva River in 1920. For this work, he chose a calm, dull colour scheme: blue and white for the river and the sky, different shades of brown, grey and green for the coast, muted red for the buildings that show up at the horizon.
#10
Petrovichev worked in the pastose painting technique. He applied thick, dense, wide strokes of oil paints to the cardboard, which created not only the image, but also a special texture. Thanks to it, the landscape looks voluminous and expressive. The brushstrokes do not merge with each other, they remain separate, so the picture has a feeling of air, lightness and transparency.
In the background, the artist depicted a panorama of Kolomna — an ancient city in the suburbs of Moscow. The painting shows the Church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, the Assumption Cathedral, the Tikhvin Church and other Orthodox temples. The nature of the Russian North and ancient architecture were Pyotr Petrovichev’s favourite topics.

“I have always been fascinated by Russian antiquity — ancient architectural monuments, familiar since my remote childhood. I have visited great Russian cities many times — Nizhny Novgorod, Kostroma, Yaroslavl, Suzdal, Novgorod the Great, Vladimir; I painted my studies there. Later they became material for paintings dedicated to Russian antiquity. I have been working on these topics all my creative life”.

Pyotr Petrovichev. Rostov the Great in Autumn, 1912
Pyotr Petrovichev was born in the Yaroslavl Governorate. He received his first drawing lessons at the Rostov Museum of Church Antiquities. There Petrovichev met the painter Vasily Vereshchagin, who at that time was living in Rostov. The latter advised the aspiring artist to move to Moscow for studying.

In 1892, Petrovichev entered the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. His teachers were Isaac Levitan and Valentin Serov. 
#13
Pyotr Petrovichev’s landscapes combined two artistic manners, which he had adopted from his teachers. From Levitan the artist learned to give grandeur even to small paintings and from Serov – to use Impressionist light contrasts.
In 1910, Petrovichev’s paintings participated in the expositions of the Society for Travelling Art Exhibitions and the Union of Russian Artists. In 1911, some of his works were bought by the largest museums at that time — the Tretyakov brothers’ Gallery, the Alexander III Museum and the Museum of the Academy of Arts.
