Sur le pont (On the Deck) - A Glimpse into Russian Society in the 20th Century
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Sur le pont (On the Deck)" offers a fascinating glimpse into Russian society during the early 20th century. Painted by Vladimir Yegorovich Makovski in 1920, this oil on canvas artwork showcases a diverse group of passengers from all walks of life aboard a boat sailing along the coast. The painting beautifully captures the stark contrast between different social classes. On one side of the deck, we see members of the bourgeoisie, elegantly dressed and engrossed in conversation. Their curiosity about their surroundings is evident as they observe their fellow travelers with mild interest. In stark contrast, on the other side of the deck, we witness scenes of poverty and misery. The working class passengers are depicted as poor and downtrodden individuals struggling to make ends meet. Their expressions reveal a sense of hardship and resignation. Makovski's masterful use of color adds depth to this thought-provoking piece. The vibrant hues bring life to both sides of society represented on board – from rich jewel tones adorning luxurious attire to muted shades reflecting destitution. Through this artwork, Makovski invites us to reflect upon societal divisions while highlighting themes such as travel, transportation, and human interaction within a changing world. It serves as an important reminder that even amidst varying circumstances, people from all backgrounds share common spaces where their lives intersect.
