Tanya by Kukryniksy

Tanya by Kukryniksy

During the Great Patriotic War, the Kukryniksy worked on paintings. On January 18, 1942, Pravda published an essay on the heroic death of a young guerrilla Tanya, hanged by the Nazis in the village of Petrishchevo, several dozen kilometers from Moscow.

A strong impression was made on them of a photograph of the head of an executed girl – with a scrap of a loop around her neck. It was decided to paint a picture of this courageous partisan who turned out to be Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya, a Moscow Komsomol member.

The artists decided to go to the village of Petrishchevo, to meet with the residents who witnessed the massacre of the partisan. They learned about how they mocked Zoya, how they beat her and tortured her, and then they kicked her barefoot in the cold. They imagined how, with difficulty moving their frost-bitten feet, Zoya walked to the place of execution, as she proudly clenched her fists, she stood before the fascists. The artists called the painting “Tanya”, as the young partisan called herself.
