Copy of the painting of Sylvester Feodosievich Shchedrin's "New Rome. Castel Sant'angelo"

This painting is a turning point in the works of Shchedrin. First of all, the new is interpreted in the story itself: fishing boats on the water with people, the walls of houses — here is the first plan and the "old" Rome (Castel Sant'angelo and St. Peter's Cathedral) goes in depth and becomes a kind of background. By the way, the Castle of the Holy angel is actually the mausoleum of Hadrian, faced with this fact drawing fentaziynoy Rome late in 2017. This painting is a very successful experience Shchedrin-planarity, master of painting outdoors. Changes in the landscape and colors to replace the dark brown tones of the first shedrinsky works come now cooler — silver, blue and green colors.
According to one of contemporaries, "the artist had to repeat this species is eight times... Every time he changed the air and tone of the picture." To make a copy of such a master was a real pleasure.
