The work of the Russian painter Karl Pavlovich Bryullov is still impressive today, as his portraits are considered particularly vivid and expressive. The artist was born in 1799 in Saint Peterburg and died in 1852 in the Italian city of Manziana. In addition to his activity as a painter, Karl Pavlovich Bryullov was also an architect. His acquaintances and friends also called the talented painter "Charles the Great", which shows the reputation he already had during his lifetime. Stylistically, the artist stands between the period of Russian neoclassicism and romanticism, which is reflected in his expressive paintings. Bryullov was compared to Peter Paul Rubens by his monumental paintings. The painter and architect was closely connected with Taras Hryhorowytsch Schewtschenko, whom he supported in his development as a painter. He even eventually bought Shevchenko out of servitude, for which he paid with a painting.
Bryllov visited numerous European cities, such as Dresden, Munich, Rome, and traveled as far as Palestine. During his numerous travels, he learned about the works of past masters and designed paintings that took place here: Thus his works are called "The Last Night in Pompeii" or "The Murder of Ines de Castro". The painter depicted these themes, legends and stories very vividly, virtually drawing the viewer into the scenes. This is particularly clear, through the subtle character representations.
To this day, the realism of his painting fascinates, which goes hand in hand with the romantic representation of ancient themes. Particularly attractive are the vivid colors that the painter uses to reproduce moods and incidence of light. In monumental depictions, such as the fall of the city of Pompeii, he uses color to bring the viewer closer to the atmosphere of the end of time. But also the harmonious picture "Italian Noon" gains warmth through its colorfulness, which captivates the viewer.
