"Morning at Sea" a change in the Weather.
AIVAZOVSKY - IVAN Constantinovich

One of the greatest seascape painters of his time, Aivazovsky conveyed the
movement of the waves, the transparent water, the dialogue between sea and
sky with virtuoso skill and tangible verisimilitude. The artist also often
turned to themes from Armenian and Russian history. Born in the Crimea
(Russia), he graduated from the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts with honours
at 20 years of age. He was sent to study in Italy and returned a recognised
master. Delacroix spoke of him with great respect and Turner described him
as a genius. Always true to his motto, "For me, to live means to work,"
Aivazovski created around 6,000 paintings. His house in his native town was
turned into a museum dedicated to his memory even during his lifetime. The
originality of Aivazovsky's work is largely determined by his national
character and temperament. Armenian culture has an ancient tradition of the
creative value of light, and the knowledge of light was one of the most
important elements in his art, giving the artist's canvases a dreamy and
emotional feel.

With thanks to Michaela.
