My fixation is not over yet, and I am happily continuing to immerse myself in the aesthetics of the Russian Empire. I mentioned in one of my previous posts about Kuzmin's diaries, and I specifically wanted to present these images as book illustrations (oh, I would love to illustrate such a publication!). It is incredibly interesting to read both as an immersion into the era and in connection with the poetry and prose of this author. I am particularly captivated by the themes of merchant Nizhny Novgorod and Old Belief, which also appear in Kuzmin's artistic works, but here I am interested in exploring the sources of his inspiration

Then the process of collecting the material and compositional solutions for my painting began.The song Izmir March, which you may have heard in tiktok, became a source of inspiration for me. This song is related to the history of Turkey at the beginning of the twentieth century, and my painting was supposed to be dedicated to these events, but later its motif changed.
