Painting by Kustodiev “Shrovetide”
A cheerful, wide and truly Russian Shrovetide festival is depicted on this canvas. People see off winter and meet the spring, they are genuinely happy and entertained on these sunny snowy days.
The artist B. M. Kustodiev showed how the festivities are held in the city. The theater is represented here, the houses are quite large (in the foreground there is a house of two floors, perhaps it belongs to a merchant). The streets are crowded. The simple people are having a good time, the brisk trade is going on, probably music, the cries of the merchants, the laughter of the townspeople. Every now and then people ride on triples. Sleds barely make their way among the snowdrifts. Ahead we see the power and wealthy old people. They conduct a leisurely conversation among themselves, perhaps discussing the holiday and the celebration.
Everyone who went to the festive streets, dressed smartly and very warm. On women – shawls and sheepskin coats, men in fur clothes, hats and
Kustodiyev did not spare his picture of juicy colors. On a background of snowy whiteness, yellow houses, colorful patterns on sleds and signboards on the walls of buildings are clearly and distinctly distinguished. All this emphasizes the atmosphere of a general holiday, creates a cheerful mood for the audience.
Maslenitsa is not only a national holiday. Immediately after it begins the fast. It is no accident that the author of the picture depicted the church domes in the background. The church, a symbol of Russian Orthodoxy, seems to guard all these people, a festive city and our country. Golden, shining in the bright sun of the temple’s dome adjoin with snow-white, covered with thick frost trees. These are the colors of faith, justice and purity, with which the Russian soul is famous.
