I.E. Repin Monument

Ilya Repin. ( #3) The Golden Age of Russian Culture-Edad de oro de la cultura rusa(Engl&Esp)

The XIX century is referred to as the golden age of Russian culture: an unprecedented era, starting in the early romanticism and blooms in the nationalistics period and realism.
In 1862 the Russian land commemorates its first millennium with the grand monument in Novgorod, first capital of the Rus.
Repin's work will take over: his paintings, displayed in museums as the Tretyakov Gallery are really an 'encyclopaedia of life in Russia, a visual summary of the best known figures in music, literature...arts, science, politics, and also the protagonists (individuals, group and ideas) that made history in those stormy decades leading to the upheaval of the XX century revolutions.
El siglo XIX se considera la edad de oro de la cultura Rusa: época sin precedentes que se inicia en el Romanticismo temprano y culmina tras los Nacionalismos y el Realismo. En 1862 la Rus conmemora su primer milenio con el gran monumento de Novgorod, primera capital histórica. Répin toma el relevo: su obra es una enciclopedia de la vida en la nación: las mayores figuras en arte, música, literatura, ciencia, política, etc. Individuos o grupos que hicieron historia en esas décadas tormentosas antes de las revoluciones del siglo XX.
