Venetsianov Threshing Floor
Return

"The Threshing Floor". This work of Russian art is significant in that not only does Andrei Venetsianov concern himself with the life of Russian peasants, but this painting is a rare example of linear perspective. Linear perspective was not commonly encountered in the work of Russian artists, not even during the twentieth century.
