Vyacheslav Pavlovich Bychkov was born into a merchant family in Yaroslavl in 1877. He received his early artistic training at Yaroslavl drawing classes.

On the banks of the Volga, among the picturesque landscapes, the future artist discovered a passion for beauty and a desire to capture his impressions on paper or canvas. The artist enjoyed visiting cities on the Volga, which became the main theme of his art.

Vyacheslav Bychkov’s genre scenes conveyed a variety of impressions and observations and were popular among those interested in this genre. The artist was particularly fascinated with village fairs and bazaars. He received a Grand Silver Medal at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture for his painting “Bazaar Day (Market Day)”.

Vyacheslav Bychkov’s art is filled with bright colors. He painted all landscapes from nature. He became an established artist during the time when studies became regarded as independent artworks. In this form, the artist vividly expressed his strong and emotional first impressions. He was able to convey the simple, modest beauty of the Russian landscape in a poetic and contemplative manner.

[Vyacheslav Bychkov] never aimed to capture random and fleeting impressions of nature and never resorted to an abstract play of color spots,” the artist Yevgeny Ivanovich Kamzolkin wrote about the painter in his work “Vyacheslav Bychkov” from the series “The Soviet Artist”.

In Soviet times, Vyacheslav Bychkov became interested in the theme of industrialization and enjoyed observing change.

“A Street in Vasilsursk” shows the life of a quiet village with wide footpaths and tidy houses. A woman wearing a white blouse and a dark midi skirt walks down the hill. Long shadows fall from the crowns of trees growing by the side of the road. On the right, there are wooden one-story houses along the road. Their facades are illuminated by the setting sun. Without adding too much detail, the artist created an image of a perfect place where the air is filled with sunlight, where the evenings are warm and quiet, where people go about their days at an unhurried pace. The artist did not just contemplate life but dissolved in this place, freezing in this moment and conveying to the viewer the atmosphere of silence and serenity.
