Vasili Rozhdestvensky

Vasili Rozhdestvensky (Russian: Василий Васильевич Рождественский) was a Russian artist, born in Tula in 1884, who diverged early from classical to modernist trends in painting, including Impressionism. His father, a priest, initially aimed for him to follow a religious path, but Rozhdestvensky's talent in art, recognized by his art teacher L. Samygin, led him to pursue his passion for painting. At 16, he moved to Moscow and enrolled in the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture, and Architecture, where he was mentored by notable artists such as Konstantin Korovin and Valentin Serov. Rozhdestvensky is celebrated for his contributions to modernist still life and landscape painting, as well as graphic art. His work reflects a transition from classical styles to embracing the innovations of modern art, making significant contributions to the Russian avant-garde movement​​​​.

Throughout his career, Rozhdestvensky participated in various exhibitions, showcasing landscapes inspired by Impressionism alongside his modernist peers. His art is known for its vivid portrayal of natural and still life scenes, which have been highly regarded at auctions and by collectors worldwide.

His works continue to be sought after, with auction records reflecting the enduring value and appreciation of his artistic contributions​​.
