Alexander Benois di Stetto. Genevan Period

Alexander Benois di Stetto. Old Geneva.1929
11 September 2006—5 October 2006
The Russian Museum presents the exhibition of the works by Alexander Benois di Stetto. 23 paintings - landscapes and portraits created in the 1920s. Baroque mansions in Geneva, small villages in the Alps, Swiss lakes and small towns on their banks - these are the artist's favourite themes. The landscapes painted in the environs of the Lake Geneva are characterized by the skill to use the rich, sometimes open colour. Portrait has a special place in the artist's oeuvre. He uses complicated attributes, highlights the costume and surroundings, and aspires to create the portrait-symbol. His self-portraits are full of energy and emotions. Portraits of his wife, who is often a model for him, are more lyrical and tender.
