Composition based on the picture of Reshetnikov's boy. Reshetnikov's painting "Boys". Description and reasoning

The artist F. P. Reshetnikov was very fond of painting on children's themes, which he had developed since the time of the Great Patriotic War. Often watching the game of teenagers in the "war". It was from that day that he began to increasingly depict children in his paintings in different life situations.

Reshetnikov's painting "Boys" was created in 1971 and is also dedicated to children. Ten years have passed since the legendary first manned flight into space. All the boys dreamed of space and as one wanted to be like Yuri Gagarin. The picture shows three boys who, on an August night, climbed onto the roof of a multi-storey building to watch the starry sky. As you know, in August in central Russia it is very often possible to observe starfall and the boys, seeing another falling "star", try to make their most secret wish as soon as possible.

Reshetnikov places all the "dreamers" in the center of the picture. However, the boys are different in character, as evidenced by their postures. One teenager leaned completely on the parapet. His friend clings to the railing, yet the unusual height frightens him a little. The one in the middle, in a friendly manner, put his hand on the shoulder to the left of the standing one and tells what he read in some book just a few days ago. He points with his hand to some particularly bright star and possibly talks about it, with particular emphasis on its name. It gives him pleasure to feel some superiority over his comrades, which is so important at this age. The schoolboy tells with such enthusiasm that his friends, without stopping, look at the asterisk, which the narrator points to. They are a little jealous of him, because he knows so much about galaxies and planets. And he also dreams very much - to fly on a real spaceship, on which he will definitely accomplish a feat.

His friends are already imagining that they, of course, will fly to distant stars all together and will definitely visit this star, which is so different from others in this dark blue, like soft velvet, sky. Their eyes burn just like these stars, because the boys are sure that as adults they will contemplate the sky not from the height of a high-rise building, but through the porthole of an interplanetary space rocket. Below will be the earth illuminated by the sun's rays, and not the city sparkling with lights, merging with the sky, as if one whole.

In the painting Boys, the artist vividly depicts the state of enthusiasm, immersion in a dream, when everything around ceases to exist. It is these dreamers who, having matured, perform real feats, make great discoveries that allow humanity to move forward. Boys with undisguised delight and childish inquisitiveness of mind are directed to the future, which is already slowly revealing its secrets to them.

Around them is the city, plunged into the night and falling asleep in a misty haze. Reshetnikov conveys to us the state of these guys, awakening childhood memories in us. With a certain amount of nostalgia, we recall our dreams and secrets of the distant past. And these suddenly surging memories seem to give us wings and give us the strength to go to the end - towards the dream. After all, the more unrealistic the dream seems, the more interesting the path to it.

Fedor Pavlovich himself experienced all this during an expedition on the legendary Chelyuskin. It was a heroic epic in which the real character of the Russian people was manifested. And in this campaign, the same grown-up dreamers participated, about whom the whole world started talking back in 1934, admiring their courage.

F.P. Reshetnikov "Boys"

Slide 14

Reshetnikov's painting "Boys" was created in 1971 and is also dedicated to children. Ten years have passed since the legendary first manned flight into space. All the boys dreamed of space and as one wanted to be like Yuri Gagarin. The picture shows three boys who, on an August night, climbed onto the roof of a multi-storey building to watch the starry sky. As you know, in August in central Russia it is very often possible to observe starfall and the boys, seeing another falling "star", try to make their most secret wish as soon as possible.
Summer night. Night city, only the windows of houses are burning, there is silence around, neither the voices of people, nor the noise of cars are heard. Three boys climbed onto the roof of a multi-storey building. They look at the starry sky with enthusiasm. All the guys are depicted in different poses, one lay down on the railing, the other just leaned on them, the third stands and points his finger up, and tells something about the constellations. He probably saw the constellation Ursa Major or found the North Star. But he talks so interestingly that his friends, opening their mouths, listen to him, they really like to look at the sky. Maybe the guys dream of becoming astronauts and imagine how, when they grow up, they will rise high up to an unfamiliar planet and study it. Maybe they think about who lives there, imagine and discuss these creatures. In the eyes of the boys, romance, dreaminess, a kind of fabulousness are read, they believe in a miracle, maybe they saw a shooting star and make a wish while it flies. At the moment, the boys are not interested in anything except the sky and stars, they are surrounded by a beautiful night city, but they do not look at it. The boys are so fascinated by the sky that they are not afraid of the height at which they are, and yet they are standing right at the edge of the roof. Meanwhile, burning windows resemble sparkling stars in the sky, and the blue-black sky seems like outer space. The picture is interesting, it gives the viewer to think out the picture, its plot, it is somewhat reminiscent of a fairy tale. It perfectly shows the enthusiasm of the guys. After watching it, I wanted to look at the starry sky and admire the amazing stars, and childhood memories flooded back, once I also dreamed of becoming an astronaut and flying into space.

F. Reshetnikov's paintings are varied. Among them there are works dedicated to children and childhood. These include the painting "Boys", written in 1971. It depicts three boys on the roof of the house, the sky is dark blue, the windows of the houses are burning brightly, the lanterns illuminate the streets. So it's late evening. The author uses dark, muted tones, there are no bright colors, the picture conveys calmness and tranquility. The picture can be divided into three parts: the upper part is occupied by the evening sky, the center is a city in lights, in the foreground are the boys. It seems to me that the characters in the picture are friends. The guys are about the same age, so perhaps they are classmates. And if at such a late time they are together, then they probably live in the house on the roof of which they are, they are neighbors. The guys came here to look at the starry sky, admire its beauty, find some kind of constellation. The boy is pointing at something. He probably read an interesting book about space, about space flights, about constellations, about satellites, and now he shares his knowledge with friends. The author emphasized his role with a white shirt, which stands out as a bright spot against the dark sky. He is a good storyteller: the other two boys listen to him with great interest. A boy standing nearby, head held high, holding on to the railing on the roof, stares wide-eyed at the sky. He was so captivated by the story that he opened his mouth and froze. Another boy is listening, leaning on some building on the roof. He is also interested, but he has completely different feelings. His gaze is dreamy, thoughtful, he admires the beauty of the starry sky. By the way the artist depicted the guys, one can tell about the character of each of them. They are completely different: the narrator is smart, well-read, serious, probably an excellent student; standing next to him - very impressionable, shy, quiet; the third boy is a romantic, a dreamer, probably an inventor. And they are interested in each other precisely because they are different. I really liked the picture. It seems that you yourself are on the roof with these guys. How I wish I had such friends!

Fyodor Reshetnikov is an artist who painted in the style of socialist realism. The main characters of his paintings are often children. In his works, he shows all the beauty of a simple boyish soul, with all its sorrows and joys.

background

Reshetnikov's painting "Boys" is very interesting in its image. The description of this canvas is best to start with the history of its creation. In 1971, almost all the children of the Soviet Union dreamed of space, because ten years had passed since the first flight of Yuri Gagarin, and the development of unknown spaces was gaining momentum. The artist in his work shows all the passion of the children of that time.

Action picture

Reshetnikov's painting "Boys", the description of which I would like to start from the place where the guys meet, expresses the mystery and magic of the night sky. The action depicted in the picture takes place on the roof of a tall building. The boys are depicted in the center of the canvas, and behind them is a city falling asleep at dusk. A separate word about the sky is vast and mysterious, it occupies a large part of the picture and attracts the eye.

Three friends peer into unexplored outer space. It is enough to look at the poses of the boys to understand that they are very different in character. And their thoughts are different.

One of the guys is a dreamer - he leans on the parapet and looks at the sky with a thoughtful look. Thoughts about the unknown depths of space, other galaxies and the possibility of exploring these worlds are read in his eyes.

An older boy enthusiastically points to his younger comrade at some point in the night sky. This is how his story is heard about spaceships plowing the expanses of space, or about the discovery of a new star. And his friend listens with enthusiasm to his friend. The surprise flickering on his face suggests that he will learn something new from the story of his comrade. And this new one captures all his simple boyish being. Reshetnikov's painting "Boys" is a description of the hopes and dreams of the children of a whole generation.

Afterword

Fedor Pavlovich Reshetnikov captured an entire era with his work - the era of social realism in the USSR. His paintings open the door to the world of honesty, openness, trust. At first glance, they seem ordinary, simple.

But it is worth taking a closer look, a closer look at the faces - and the cycle of thoughts, feelings, aspirations captures. Reshetnikov's painting "Boys", the description of which is given above, makes it possible to understand the interest in discoveries, and the desire for the unknown in a whole generation.

Cool! 53

The painting by Fyodor Pavlovich Reshetnikov “Boys” will touch any person who has not forgotten how to dream and fantasize. It depicts a late warm evening and the roof of a house heated by the summer sun. Three boys climbed onto the roof and look with interest at the heavenly tent spread over them.

In the very center of the picture, a boy in a white shirt is enthusiastically explaining something to his friends, pointing to the blue sky. Perhaps the first evening stars are already blinking from above, and it is about them that the boy is telling his story. One of the friends, leaning on his elbows, carefully follows the hand of the narrator and tries to understand everything that his friend says. And the other, raising his fair-haired head, seems to have forgotten about everything in the world and even opened his mouth in surprise, admiring the heavenly beauty.

Somewhere below, the yellow windows of apartments are burning, in which evening life is in full swing. People cook food, read newspapers, laugh. Perhaps the boys also hear the last sounds of the sleeping city and they hear how dogs are walking in the yards, finishing the last game of dominoes and, having met a neighbor, they share the latest news. But the boys do not care that angry mothers may have been waiting for them for dinner for a long time. Three friends, at this moment, are carried away by their thoughts about a wonderful future and they can not wait to fulfill their most cherished desires as soon as possible.

What are these boys talking about? What fantasy made them climb on the highest roof? Why are their faces so bright and dreamy? To fully understand the picture "Boys", you need to pay attention to the year of its creation. And it was written in 1971. Just ten years before the creation of this picture, Yuri Gagarin flew into space, opening a new era in the life of mankind. An era that can be called space. All children dreamed of becoming astronauts, astronomers and explorers of the universe. How many secrets were waiting to be revealed, how many plans were there for space exploration!

So these boys from early childhood dreamed of the cold infinity of space, respected and loved Gagarin, studied constellations and stars, and perhaps even attended an astronomy or design circle. After all, all this will definitely come in handy in the future, when one of the friends will look through the telescope for new planets that have an intelligent life form, the other will design modern spaceships, and the third, of course, will fly to the found planet to make contact with its inhabitants.

Therefore, the faces of three friends standing on the roof of the house are so dreamy and so much inspiration is read in the views directed to the high dark sky. They sincerely believe in their bright future, believe in their dreams and ideals. All these hot young feelings, Fyodor Pavlovich very accurately and vividly conveyed through the canvas of his painting. It is written so sincerely that it seems as if the artist himself is not averse to going with the boys to a distant unknown planet, which mysteriously winks at three dreamers through the darkness of the universe.

Many of Reshetnikov's paintings depict children. I chose to write an essay based on the painting "Boys" by Reshetnikov, because I really like the guys who are painted there. It seems to me that it would be interesting to make friends with all three of them.

The boys in the picture are standing on the roof of a tall building. It's already night in the city. The windows of the houses are cosily lit. And very close above the heads of the guys is a huge starry sky. In his work, the artist uses rich blue and gray tones. Because of this, the night sky in the picture looks just like the real thing, mysterious and exciting. You can look at it for a long time along with the characters.

A boy in a white shirt enthusiastically tells his friends about something. And they listen to him very carefully. The blond-haired boy looks with interest where his friend is pointing. He opened his mouth slightly out of curiosity.

And another boy leaned his head on his hand and looked thoughtfully into the starry sky. He is in his dreams now somewhere far, far away. It can be seen that the characters of all three boys are different, but at the same time there is something that connects them. The roof of the house has now become for them the deck of a starship, and they have become his team. And they all go on an adventure together. These adventures are still childish, not scary at all. And in one of the luminous windows, their mother is waiting for each of them. But even when the boys grow up, they will certainly not forget about their dreams and their friendship.

This picture makes me want to dream too. Other planets and aliens, galaxies and constellations... How many different mysteries are still unexplored and are waiting for me. The description of the painting “Boys” by Reshetnikov allows us to feel that the secret can be very close. Even on an ordinary house roof. The main thing is not to pass by it!

Fedor Pavlovich Reshetnikov is familiar to viewers from many paintings, most of which are devoted to the children's theme. For example, everyone knows his paintings "Again a deuce", "Took the language", "I came for the holidays." In my essay, I want to dwell on the canvas, which Reshetnikov called "Boys". The picture was painted in 1971.

In his work of art, Reshetnikov depicted three boys who went up to the roof on a dark night. Probably, parents about this night outing know nothing. The boys look with interest at the night sky, which is strewn with bright stars. I imagine them telling each other about the constellations. Or maybe they know some secrets that are associated with the stars? They may be writing fantastic tales of space travel and galactic conquest. The boys admiringly look at something in the starry sky, this can be seen from their faces, which depict enthusiasm, delight, interest and joy.

What is happening around, the boys do not notice. Their eyes are riveted to the sky, which attracts with its mystery. Looking at Reshetnikov's painting "Boys", I remembered my case, which was associated with the starry sky. Everyone knows that with a shooting star you need to make a wish. That is exactly what I did. And you know, my wish, made under a falling star, came true.

The picture is lively and realistic. I imagine myself next to the boys on the roof. In addition to the main characters, the lights of the night city are visible in the picture. But the boys have nothing to do with the city at night. The view of high-rise buildings merges with the sky, against which images of boys stand out brightly.

I really liked the picture of the author Reshetnikov. The artist managed to accurately show the mystery of the starry sky, especially in combination with boys. Like the rest of Reshetnikov's works of art, the painting "Boys" connects us with childhood, gives us the opportunity to dream.
