About the Item
The picture Shrovetide, produced at nearly the same time, represents the rave of colour and the pagan joy. But the philosophical aspect of the plot is of main importance. In the moment of burning down the Shrovetide scarecrow the author finds both the duality of the human soul, and the topic of life and death.
The raging of the corporeal during Shrovetide is stopped by burning down the winter scarecrow, the repentance takes place, the transition to the spriritual”, Simon says, “In fact this is what we all look for in life, it’s the victory of good over evil, of light over darkness. That’s what I sought for when I was making the pictures from the 1812 series – Russia, regaining its spirit: how can Russia be helped, how can its spirituality be awaken, how can we abandon the irrelevant and superficial, preserve the patriotic spirit of the country?

February. Meadery. Kolomenskoye
By Simon Kozhin
Located in Zofingen, AG
This meadery in Kolomenskoye Park is known to many park visitors. It is located next to the front gate to the left of the entrance to the park on the territory of the Kazan Garden. I wrote this sketch in one full-scale session. The snow melted a little and I had the task of understanding the different tones and colors of white shades, reflexes, and at the same time, the meadery itself is quite a picturesque object that reminds me of something from the fabulous illustrations of the artist Ivan Bilibin...
