Petr Miturich

Petr Miturich (Russian: Пётр Васильевич Митурич), a Russian graphic artist and painter born in 1887 in St. Petersburg and passing away in 1956 in Moscow, was a pivotal figure in the art world of his time. His education at the Kiev art school between 1906-1909, followed by studies at the Academy of Arts in St. Petersburg under N. S. Samokish until 1915, laid a solid foundation for his career. Miturich joined the World of Art group in 1915 and was a member of the Four Arts association from 1925 to 1929, marking his active involvement in the artistic community. His teaching role at the Moscow Vkhutemas/Vkhutein between 1923 and 1930 further demonstrates his commitment to art education​​​​.

Miturich's work is celebrated for its rhythmical composition and expressive strokes, often featuring landscapes and portraits that reveal a deep engagement with both the external and internal worlds of his subjects. His innovative approach to drawing and painting, particularly evident in his portraits and cycles of landscapes, underscores his quest for a new artistic language that balanced innovation with traditional foundations​​​​.

Significantly, Miturich's contributions extend beyond his artistic creations. He was deeply interested in aeronautics, as showcased in his letun project, a testament to his engagement with the themes of flight and motion. This interest aligns him with the broader currents of Russian Modernism and connects his work with other avant-garde movements of the time​​.

Miturich's legacy is preserved in major institutions like the State Tretyakov Gallery, the State Russian Museum, and the Museum of Velimir Khlebnikov in Astrakhan, among others, ensuring his influential works continue to inspire art enthusiasts and collectors​​.

For collectors and experts in art and antiques, Petr Miturich's oeuvre offers a fascinating glimpse into the intersection of traditional art forms with avant-garde ideas. His works, rich in expressive detail and historical significance, represent a compelling addition to any collection.
