EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the esteemed poet Mikhail Lermontov, capturing his essence and immortalizing him in a moment of time. Painted by Nikolay Ivanovich Polivanov between 1854 and 1858, this neoclassical masterpiece is a testament to both the artistic skill of the painter and the poetic genius of Lermontov. Lermontov's piercing gaze meets ours with an intensity that reflects his profound introspection and complex emotions. The artist has expertly captured every nuance of his subject's face, from the delicate lines etched on his forehead to the subtle curve of his lips. The play of light and shadow adds depth to Lermontov's countenance, enhancing its enigmatic allure. As we delve into this fine art image, we are transported back to a turbulent era in Russian literature when Lermontov reigned supreme as one of its most influential figures. His poetry resonated deeply with readers, exploring themes such as love, loss, and existentialism with remarkable sensitivity. Displayed proudly at the Institut of Russian Literature IRLI (Pushkin-House) in St Petersburg, this oil on canvas painting serves as a reminder not only of Lermontov's literary legacy but also Polivanov's artistic prowess. It is through works like these that history comes alive; they allow us to connect with great minds who have shaped our cultural heritage. This print invites us into an intimate encounter with Mikhail Lermontov himself
