Yuri’s bears
Posted: November 4th, 2018 | Author: timp67 | Filed under: T Writes | Tags: Animals, Artwork, Favorite Things, Nature | No Comments »
The wonderful illustrator Yuri Vasnetsov was born in Russia in 1900. He studied modern art but found his greatest inspiration in traditional Russian folk art and his love of wildlife. Animals of all kinds spring to life in his drawings and paintings with much humor and sometimes a touch of dread. Bears were a favorite subject. Here are some terrific examples.
Mr. Vasnetsov was able to give all his animal creations a strong and distinct personality. Despite having lost a leg and trekking in deep snow, this bear seems to be looking on the bright side of life. It’s good to be home!
⌃Here are the famous Three Bears in a happy daytime woodland scene.
⌃And a different trio in a nighttime setting.
⌃This bear has found a reluctant sailing companion, who also serves as a boat!
⌃And this painting shows Yuri’s love of bears is shared by all.
Happy Halloween!
