See with your own eyes

See with your own eyes. #ThroughYourself and #OnYourself cannot be conveyed by any existing words of any language in the world. Seeing with your own eyes from different angles is a special pleasure!

#The Tretyakovka has shown 55 works by masters of academic and salon art and this time I decided that the tour would encourage a deep dive into the 19th century.

A few works have captured my soul that more than once I have returned to them, looking at the details and moving a few meters away from the work to understand the integrity of the painting.

For some reason I think all the paintings were painted from life. It's hard to realize how something like that can be imagined and held in your head. They told me about the frames... interesting. Told about Ayvaz, where without him). The volume and detail of several paint/oil canvases is shocking. A persistent feeling that such a thing is impossible to paint. Everything is too precise! But it is very and very interesting, and #MeBeBeautiful.
