The Peredvizhniki - Pioneers of Russian Painting


Another exhibition that I can highly recommend and a rare occasion to see these masterpieces outside Russia. The Peredvizhniki were "the losers under the Tsarist regime. Political repression. Landscapes and portraits of prominent citizens and intellectuals. With their realistic depictions of Russian society, the members of the Peredvizhniki group were artistic pioneers." The show is taking place at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm from 29th of September 2011 to the 22nd of January 2012.
