EDITORS COMMENTS
In this oil on canvas print titled "Petrushka is coming, 1888". Aleksei Ivanovich Korzukhin transports us to a charming scene filled with joy and excitement. The artwork, measuring 99x129 cm, can be found in the Radishchev State Art Museum in Saratov, Russia. The image depicts a group of children eagerly celebrating the arrival of Petrushka, a beloved character from Russian folk puppetry. Petrushka is associated with slapstick comedy and children's entertainment, making him an instant hit among the young ones. As we gaze at the painting, we are reminded of the rich tradition and folklore that surrounds this iconic figure. Set against a backdrop of rustic streets in a provincial town, the vibrant colors and lively brushstrokes bring forth an atmosphere of celebration. We can almost hear laughter filling the air as these children revel in their favorite entertainer's presence. Korzukhin masterfully captures not only the essence of childhood innocence but also highlights how traditions like these have endured through generations. This print serves as a delightful reminder that even amidst our modern world's fast-paced nature, there is still room for cherished customs and communal celebrations. As we admire this piece by Korzukhin, let us embrace its nostalgic charm and appreciate how art has always been able to transport us to simpler times filled with wonderment and delight.
