A walk by Karl Bryullov

A walk by Karl Bryullov

We see a group of people who make a walk around Madeira. The artist concentrated his attention on an unusual wheelchair. In her harnessed oxen. Ladies and two gentlemen were comfortable in such an exotic carriage. People are specially allocated to emphasize their special position.

Only after that, viewers’ eyes go to those riders who are accompanying this magnificent stroller. Painter used incredibly bright colors. The whole landscape, as if from within is filled with sun. We feel it not only in every blade of grass and leaves, but also in the central characters of this magnificent creation. Each figure is prescribed with extraordinary skill. We feel a special movement, which is transmitted by the position and turning of the head of all people.

Very realistic and unusually brightly drawn graceful horses and strong oxen. They are so real that it seems that we can hear the clatter of hoofs and creaking wheels. On the one hand, the plot is very exotic. But at the same time, it is as simple as possible.

The artist lets people feel that there is not something special here. This kind of walk, was the usual entertainment of the rich people in Madera. Bryullov just saw one such scene and captured it in his watercolor, skillfully combining with a masterfully prescribed landscape.
