Composition on the painting "Golden Autumn" - an indispensable element of the school program

Composition on the painting "Golden Autumn" can begin with the argument that a rare artist, especially the Russian school of painting, did not capture in his paintings this fertile time of the year, sung by Pushkin. It is impossible to find words that more accurately and beautifully speak of Russian autumn.

The uniqueness of Russian nature

It is Russian, because in the territory of our country alone, deciduous trees with coniferous trees are harmoniously combined, which makes the palette so diverse, in which both crimson, gold and greens are present. Canada, too, is on the same latitude as Russia, and there are many maples in it, especially beautiful in autumn, but, as another poet shows, "it's not Russia". In our country, probably, there is not one person who did not write at school an essay on the painting "Golden Autumn". Only the names of the artists differed - in some years it could be I. Levitan or I. Shishkin, in some - V. Polenov or I. Brodsky.

One of many

All the paintings of famous Russian artists, glorifying this time of the year, are recognizable. They differ from similar works of world art, probably because in each of them, whether it be a view of the river from a mountain or a small forest pond, the vast expanses of our country are felt. It is a pity that the composition of the painting "Golden Autumn" is not written on the canvas of Yefim Volkov (1844-1920), which depicts a quiet forest river with marshy banks and a lot of yellowed birches, which, bending from both banks, joined by the crowns. Wonderful picture.

"It's a beautiful time ..."

For Russian autumn landscapes is characteristic that they do not cause sadness - the withering of nature on them is just magnificent, as AS Pushkin said, and when the painting depicts late autumn, nothing can be said about it more than "eye enchantment". Golden autumn in the paintings of Russian artists can be compared only with the beautiful poems of Russian poets dedicated to this period, and the music of Pyotr Tchaikovsky from The Seasons. If you look at the retrospective of autumn landscapes for this music, then the feeling of aching happiness covers the viewer.

Singer of Russian nature

The pictures are endless, it's hard to choose the best, you can only stop by the individual ones. The painting "Golden Autumn" by Polenov (1844-1927) was written in 1893. The canvas depicts a concrete place - the neighborhood of the village of Beohovo, which the artist bought in 1890. It is located on the high bank of the Oka. City dweller V. Polenov enjoyed here the beauty of Russian nature. Somehow in September, before him, an extraordinary landscape opened up. September, immortalized on this canvas, in general the most beautiful time of the year. The exhausting heat was asleep, the time of the rains is still far away, all the leaves on the trees are intact, only on the birches, which turn yellow early, they changed color. In an almost standing river, the banks clearly reflecting towards the Ochkov mountains. Often the air in these paintings is called crystal. And how else can you call it? The horizon is infinitely far away. On the left is the bend of the river, the sand on which is gently yellow in the background of darker trees. Silence and grace - on the canvas the moment of absolute happiness is imprinted. Painting "Golden autumn" Polenova, the size of 77x124 cm, is stored in the museum-reserve of his name.

Pride for Russia should be vaccinated from childhood

The composition of the painting "Golden Autumn" makes the students not only get acquainted with the masterpieces of Russian painting, but also feel their involvement in this incomparable beauty. Preparing for the composition, looking landscapes, the child learns not only to love Russian nature, but also to feel pride in her unique in the world and unique beauty, learns to admire the geniuses of painting, poetry, music, which was able to convey the perfection of the environment, and express her love to motherland.
