Kustodiev Boris Mikhailovich

Kustodiev Boris Mikhailovich (1878, Astrakhan – 1927, Leningrad).

The painter studied at the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts (1896–1903) under I. Repin and participated in the making of The State Council Session (1901–1903, the State Russian Museum, St. Petersburg). His talent as a brilliant portrait painter became apparent in the years of learning already. During the first Russian revolution of 1905–1907 Kustodiev cartooned for Zhupel and Adskaya pochta magazines. In 1908, he began to work in the field of portrait sculpture. He was a member of artists’ associations such as the World of Art and the Russian Artists’ Union. Living in St. Petersburg and Moscow, the artist frequently traveled to upper Volga cities and villages where he painted scenes from traditional country life (the ‘fairs’, ‘Shrovetide’ and ‘village feasts’ series) and colorful folk characters such as the ‘tradeswomen’, ‘tradesmen’ and the bathing beauties known as ‘Russian Venuses’. His first canvas of the kind (Fair, 1906, Tretyakov Gallery) was commissioned by the State Papers Dispatch Department for a planned but never produced series of cheap popular prints. After the 1917 revolution, Kustodiev made his best book illustrations (for N. Leskov’s Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk and E. Zamyatin’s Rus; both 1923, etc.) and stage designs (E. Zamyatin’s Flea for the Second Moscow Academic Art Theater, 1925, etc.). The artist’s works are in the State Tretyakov Gallery, the State Russian Museum, and in many regional museums.
