“We need paintings that speak to the heart and that the soul responds to… We need light, we need more joy and more light.” — Korovin.

As a fellow artist once remarked, “Korovin’s painting is the embodiment in imagery of the artist’s happiness and joy of living. All the colours of the world beckoned to him and smiled at him.”
