TABLEAU "LISIÈRE DE FORÊT" by Nikolaj Nikanorovich DUBOVSKOIJ (1859-1918) Oil on panel, signed and dated lower right "Dubovskoij 1911". Size: 24 x 33 cm In 1886, he became a member of the Peredvizhniki "Les Ambulants", a group of Russian painters formed in reaction to the restrictions of academicism. Les Ambulants originally formed the Artists' Artel (a cooperative). In 1870, the group evolved into the Society of Travelling Exhibitions. The society was formed in St. Petersburg under the impetus of Ivan Kramskoy, Grigori Miassoïedov, Nikolaï Gay and Vassili Perov. In 1900, he became a member of the Academy of Arts. His works are full of fervor, masterfully executed in terms of technique, and feature popular subjects from Russian nature. They continue the tradition of large panoramic landscapes taught to him by his master Mikhail Klodt (1832-1902). The painter produced over four hundred paintings and around a thousand study sketches. N. N. Dubovskoy is one of the few Russian landscape painters to have won so many prizes for his participation in painting exhibitions in Paris, Munich and Rome. His paintings are exhibited at the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, the Russian Museum in St. Petersburg, the Fine Arts Museums of Omsk, Nizhny Novgorod, Novotcherkassk, Kazan, Krasnoyarsk and many other cities in Russia and abroad.
