от старых мастеров до импрессионизма

Johann Gottlieb Hantzsch was a German genre painter. He studied painting at the Dresden Academy of Arts from 1811 to 1822.
Johann Gottlieb Hantzsch initially devoted himself to war motifs and romantic images. From 1827 onwards he mostly painted scenes from the life of petty bourgeoisie. Some of them were engraved by Ludwig Richter.


Adolph Friedrich Erdmann von Menzel was a German Realist artist noted for drawings, etchings, and paintings. Along with Caspar David Friedrich, he is considered one of the two most prominent German painters of the 19th century, and was the most successful artist of his era in Germany. First known as Adolph Menzel, he was knighted in 1898 and changed his name to Adolph von Menzel.
His popularity in his native country, owing especially to his history paintings, was such that few of his major paintings left Germany, as many were quickly acquired by museums in Berlin. Menzel's graphic work (and especially his drawings) were more widely disseminated; these, along with informal paintings not initially intended for display, have largely accounted for his posthumous reputation.


Friedrich Wilhelm Otto Modersohn was a German painter of the late 19th and first half of the 20th centuries. He is known as a landscape painter, a representative of the Barbizon School.
Otto Modersohn produced Barbizonian-style landscapes early in his career, but from about 1890 his style became more expressionist, with an emphasis on his choice of colors. The death of his second wife influenced his style: the colors became darker and the images more stark. Modersohn was one of the founders of the Worpswede artists' colony. A large collection of his works is kept in the Modersohn Museum in Fischerhude, and a street in Berlin is also named after him.

Stepan Fedorovitch Kolesnikoff (Russian: Степан Федорович Колесников) was a Ukrainian realist painter renowned for his exceptional ability to capture the essence of Ukrainian nature and rural life. Born in 1879 in the Russian Empire and passing in 1955 in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, Kolesnikoff's journey began in a humble peasant family. His artistic talent was evident early on, leading him to the Odessa Art School and subsequently, without exams, to the prestigious Imperial Academy of Arts. Here, he was not only a student but also thrived, winning numerous awards for his work.
Kolesnikoff's art is characterized by its focus on the natural awakening of landscapes, melting snows, floods, and the vibrant days of spring. He also had a keen interest in painting domestic scenes filled with people and animals, often using a palette of blues and bright oranges. Despite the rich detail in his paintings, Kolesnikoff rarely highlighted the faces of his subjects, preferring instead to capture the essence of the moment. His work received high praise from Ilya Repin, a leading Russian artist of the time, underscoring Kolesnikoff's significant impact on realism.
After emigrating to the Balkans in 1919 due to the political upheaval in Russia, Kolesnikoff settled in Belgrade where he continued his artistic career. He was warmly welcomed and even participated in state assignments, such as leading restoration works on paintings and frescoes. Kolesnikoff's legacy extends beyond his paintings; he was a respected member of the artistic community, contributing to societies like the "Community of Artists" and "Leonardo da Vinci".
For collectors and experts in art and antiques, Kolesnikoff's work represents a fascinating blend of cultural and historical narratives, imbued with the beauty of Eastern European landscapes and life. His contributions to realism and his unique approach to depicting rural life make his works highly sought after.
