The well-known artist Viktor Grigoryevich Tsyplakov was also a well-deserved artist. He took painting lessons in such masters as G. Shegal, S. Gerasimov, I. Grabar. His pen belongs to the famous painting “Frost and the sun”. The author took the title from the first words of the poem “Winter morning” by A. Pushkin. It is the landscape that exists in the poem that is imprinted on the canvas.
In the picture we see a severe winter. The whole earth is covered by a thick layer of snow. Because it shines in the sun you can understand that it is very cold. The whole picture is painted in cool tones. The sky is very light, and the snow is so white that it even gives off a blue. The only dark spot in the picture is a horse with a sleigh, which calls into the village. On the left in the picture are several houses. They are all covered with snow and this feeling, but they are sleeping. If it were not for the horses, it would seem that there is no life in the picture. But one contradictory fact can not be overlooked. Although the whole picture is full of some antiquity and antiquity, but the poles with the power line were already present.
Progress even at that time did not stand still. But all the same, the author called his painting “Frost and the sun”, so he wanted to draw our attention to nature, wanted to show all its aspects. That even in cold, harsh, winter days, the charm of nature surrounding us is simply dazzling. And although the rays of the sun, falling on the snow, do not warm the earth at all, but the beauty of the eyes is very pleasing to the eyes of connoisseurs of beauty.
Looking at the picture of Viktor Tsyplakov “Frost and the Sun” involuntarily you feel the piercing cold coming from it. But from it you do not freeze, but you just goose bumps on the skin from the miracle seen in the picture. Overflowing of sunlight on the snow takes us into a fairy tale. It is only necessary to put on warmer clothes and admire it before sunset.
