The Russian School of Painting, written by Alexandre Benois and first published in 1916, is a comprehensive exploration of the history and development of painting in Russia from the medieval period to the early 20th century. The book covers a broad range of styles and movements, including icon painting, realism, impressionism, and symbolism, and features detailed analyses of the work of major artists such as Ilya Repin, Valentin Serov, and Mikhail Vrubel. Benois, a prominent artist and art critic of the time, provides insightful commentary on the social and cultural contexts that shaped Russian painting, as well as the unique artistic traditions and innovations that emerged from within the country. The book is illustrated with numerous reproductions of paintings, sketches, and other artworks, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of Russian art.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
