The researcher concludes that the themes of Chestnyakov’s works are based on the folklore and ethnography of his native Kologriv region, and his visual method is rooted in the principles of neo-romantic art. These two lines are connected through the primitivist approach that is chosen as a vector of a creative path. This approach gives rise to stylistic symbiosis which becomes the basis of the author’s artistic method.","PeriodicalId":37537,"journal":{"name":"Academia (Greece)","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70466383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But gradually the masters of this circle move away from purely decorative ornamental fantasies, get carried away with solving more complex problems.

The few landscapes of Cosroe Dusi are close to the romantic concept of spiritualized nature. In sketches from nature and drawings, the influence of the academic art education system is obvious. He also created a number of monumental works in St Isaacʼs Cathedral, and his technique and iconographic solutions indicate an interest in the Russian national tradition.
