Arkady Rylov Biography
(b Istobenskoye, Vyatka province, 17 Jan 1870; d Leningrad [now St Petersburg], 22 June 1933). Russian painter. After attending the Stieglitz Central School of Technical Drawing in St Petersburg in 188891, he studied at the Academy of Arts (until 1897). His principal teacher there was Arkhip Kuindzhi, whose luminarist style greatly influenced Rylovs approach to painting and predetermined his concentration on landscape. Rylovs early works, such as Green Sound (1904; Moscow, Tretyakov Gal.), maintain the delicate colour harmonies of Kuindzhi and also connect with the concurrent work of other students of Kuindzhi such as Nicholas Roerich. Rylov exhibited with the World of Art group, although he did not share their enthusiasm for Art Nouveau and, in closer sympathy with the less affected style of the Moscow landscape school, he joined the Union of Russian Artists in 1903. Rylov favoured the Russian forest, the Black Sea, birds and animals as subject-matter, as in Seagulls (1910; St Petersburg, Rus. Mus.), and rarely investigated the portrait or the still-life.
