EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Shrove-Tide in 1919, as depicted by renowned artist Boris Mikhailovich Kustodiev. Painted with oil on canvas, this masterpiece measures 71.6x98.3 cm and is currently housed at the Belorussian National Gallery in Minsk, Belarus. The scene comes alive with vibrant colors and intricate details that transport viewers to a lively village or town during the festive season. The celebration is in full swing, with children and adults alike taking part in various activities that define Shrove-Tide. In the foreground, we see a bustling theatre performance where actors entertain an enthusiastic audience. Behind them lies a snowy landscape adorned with sleighs pulled by majestic horses. Laughter fills the air as families enjoy rides through the wintry wonderland. The spirit of community is palpable as villagers come together to revel in this joyous occasion. Children playfully release balloons into the sky while others engage in friendly snowball fights or build snowmen. Kustodiev's attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves fully into this momentous event from nearly a century ago. Through his brushstrokes, he captures not only the physical surroundings but also evokes emotions of happiness and unity among those present. This remarkable artwork serves as a timeless reminder of how traditions bring people closer together, transcending time and place.
