An Honored Artist of Russia, Fyodor Petrovich Glebov is considered one of the best landscape painters of the 20th century. His work has become a significant phenomenon in Russian fine art.

He received his initial professional education at the Moscow Art School in Memory of 1905 from 1932 to 1936, where he studied under Nikolay Petrovich Krymov.

Immediately after, he entered the Surikov Moscow Institute of Fine Arts. Alexander Alexandrovich Osmerkin and Sergey Vasilyevich Gerasimov were his teachers there. In 1941, the artist volunteered for the front.

After the war, in 1948, his graduation work was the painting “On the Frontline Road”. At that time, Fyodor Glebov’s active artistic career began. At first, the artist worked in book design.

He created illustrations for the works of Veniamin Alexandrovich Kaverin, Alexander Aleksandrovich Fadeyev, and Sergey Vladimirovich Mikhalkov, and worked in the technique of linocut. Then, under the influence of Nikolay Petrovich Krymov, with whom he was friends, he became interested in painting. Fyodor Glebov wrote,

In the 1960s, his style matured. His main genre was landscape and his favorite subject was Central Russia. The painter’s strengthened skill and understanding of his own original manner allowed him not to limit himself in choosing themes and motifs.

The artist traveled a lot around the country. A series of landscapes created in 1973 had a special significance in Fyodor Glebov’s legacy — he depicted places associated with Alexander Pushkin. The series marked a new stage in the artist’s work: the assertion of monumentality in the landscape and the perception of nature as a majestic, powerful human environment.

The work “Three Pines” embodies the power and beauty of the Russian forest.
