Boris Dmitrievich Grigoriev entered the Russian fine arts as a strong master of the line and a brilliant artist whose work astonished his contemporaries with his \u201cfabulous accuracy.\u201d
In 1919, he left Russia with his family and never returned.
At the Yerevan Museum of Russian Art, Boris Grigoriev is represented by works from the Russian period. The painting \u201cMother and Child\u201d was painted in 1913 in oil on wood. This is a portrait of the artist\u2019s wife, his classmate at the Stroganov School, German by birth Elizaveta Georgievna von Brasche, nursing a baby.
The artist was fond of romantic irony and grotesque, which gave him a particularly sharp view of the world. Professor Abrahamyan\u2019s collection presents Grigoriev\u2019s grotesque work \u201cVillage Girls\u201d.
In the painting \u201cZoo\u201d (1917), a curious world arises, where people, animals and trees resemble each other surprisingly by bends of shapes and stagnation of poses.
Standing before the works of this amazing master, Alexander Benoit\u2019s words are are unwittingly recalled about him: \u201cAn art, wonderful in its exceptional talent.\u201d
