EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "La queue a la fontaine" or "The Queue At The Fountain" we are transported to a winter scene in a bustling city. Despite the biting cold and thick fog, the inhabitants patiently wait their turn at the city fountain to fill their buckets with drinkable water. Painted by Vasili Grigoryevich Perov in 1865, this oil on canvas artwork captures the hardships faced by the people of Russia during the 19th century. The painting depicts a poignant moment in everyday life where poverty and misery are palpable. Men, women, and children stand together in solidarity against nature's elements as they endure the harsh winter conditions. Their faces reflect sadness and weariness, yet there is also resilience shining through. This piece not only showcases Perov's mastery of color and composition but also serves as a powerful reminder of humanity's struggle for survival amidst adversity. It speaks volumes about the importance of basic necessities like clean water that many take for granted today. Displayed at the National Art Museum of Belorussian Republik in Minsk, Belarus, this Russian artwork continues to captivate viewers with its raw depiction of reality. As we gaze upon it, we cannot help but feel gratitude for our modern comforts while being reminded of those who still face similar challenges around us.
