Nikolai Blokhin, 1968 | Pittore impressionista

Nato a San Pietroburgo, in Russia, il maestro Николай Блохин è emerso come uno degli artisti più importanti del suo tempo.

Mentre coltivava gli ideali realizzati da molti dei suoi predecessori nella teoria dell'arte russa, la ricerca di Blokhins verso un linguaggio espressivo tradizionale lo consumò nei suoi primi anni accademici.

Fu solo quando entrò all'Accademia delle Arti che iniziò a cercare i canoni di coloro che rompevano con la tradizione e sconvolgevano le visioni artistiche tematiche, che trovò il proprio stile distinto.

Among them was the English reformer, poet, and designer William Morris, who, in 1861, founded a firm of interior decorators and manufacturers - Morris, Marshall, Faulkner, and Company (after 1875, Morris and Company) - dedicated to recapturing the spirit and quality of medieval craftsmanship.
