PD Korin Biography

My neighbor, Pavel Korin Pavel Korin, wrote a cycle of portraits, made the studies of the interiors of the Assumption Cathedral of the Moscow Kremlin, and prepared several sketches of the composition. But he did not transfer his achievements to a huge canvas with the size of more than 40 square meters, exceeding the size of the “phenomenon of Christ the people” Alexander Ivanov.

This is a generalization, a picturesque epic under the power of a great talent, as I think Pavel Korin »M. Nesterov in the year, Pavel Korin, became a witness to Patriarch Tikhon. From that moment for more than forty years, he worked on a grandiose intention - mourning farewell, the last parade of the church, a picture, which the artist himself called the Requiem.

Thinking through the plot, he repeatedly admitted that he was inspired by the “requem” of Berlioz, while noting in his records that the picture should sound to the motive “Holy God ...”. On the advice of A. Gorky, the picture appeared the second name - “Outcoming Rus'”, and this, according to Korin, was “a kind of security diploma”. Pavel Dmitrievich worked for several decades on the composition of the picture.

First, he built a composition in the form of a procession, procession, and the procession composition of the year. On the last sketch, which Korin himself dated - for years, the action takes place in the central space of the Assumption Cathedral of the Moscow Kremlin. The artist was allowed to write sketches in the Kremlin territory of the Kremlin by A. one of the sketches of the sketch to the “Outbreak of Rus'” on Cathedral Square.

After Korin gets the opportunity to work in the Moscow Kremlin in the 10th years, he has a sketch option, where the action takes place on Cathedral Square. Under the drawing, the artist writes his thoughts on the composition of the picture. One of the options for the sketch of "Rus Opening". The central part. Under the drawing in the right half of the sheet, the author’s record of ink to clarify the composition.

Having abandoned the plan with Cathedral Square, the author transfers the place of action to the interior of the temple, while maintaining existing compositional finds. Together with the composition, the artist’s plan also changed: the initial idea of ​​the end of the church and the death of spiritual tradition was transformed into the idea of ​​the indestructibility of the church as an eternal source of spirit.

After the death of Gorky, one of the first marshals of the Soviet Union Klim Voroshilov urged him to stop working, which could be interpreted as a “chanting of the Church”. Although most of the preparatory work for the “Requiem” in their artistic properties are entitled to be called full-fledged portraits, Korin himself still called them sketches. Most of those present on the sketch were real participants in the farewell with Patriarch Tikhon.

Many of the depicted were repressed during the fight against secret monastic fraternities in Moscow in the years. Unfortunately, the excursion on the sketch of the picture is available only on large screens. Sorry for the inconvenience. We hope that you will return to viewing this block from a tablet or computer. Some people depicted on preparatory portraits were not included in the sketch of GG.

Priest Sergius of the Assumption Senior hereditary Orthodox priest. For several decades, he served in the church of the Savior of Transfiguration on the sands on Arbat, was the rector of this temple and the dean of the 2nd branch of the Prechistensky forty, senior dean of Moscow. The concerns of Father Sergius at the Church of the Savior of Transfiguration on the sands opened a parish school and an almshouse.

In the year, for trying to protect the temples, Father Sergius was arrested with A. Samarin and accused of organizing the active resistance of the new government. He was sentenced to fifteen years in prison, but soon the deadline was replaced with a conditional one. In March, father Sergius was repeatedly arrested during the company for the seizure of church values. Among others, he was accused of organizing a “criminal community”, headed by Patriarch Tikhon, and calls for resistance to the authorities.

Sentenced to ten years in prison with confiscation of property and defeat in rights for five years. He died in the year. Detailed information about the Archpriest Vasily is currently not known.

Presumably, in the first third of the XX century. Priest John Rozhdestvensky P. Korin called his sketch "Father Ivan - a priest from Palekh." There is an unreasonable assumption that the holy martyr John Rozhdestvensky is depicted, shot on false charges on May 10. Hieromonk about the portrayed by Hieromonk only it is known that in the year he was in the Valaam Monastery. On the sketch, he is depicted reading the great repentant canon of Andrei Crete.
