Arkady Alexandrovich Rylov (1870–1939) was one of Russia's finest landscape painters — a master of capturing the wild, open beauty of the Russian countryside with a freshness and luminosity that sets him apart from his contemporaries. His most celebrated work, In the Blue Expanse, is a soaring composition of white swans against a brilliant blue sky that has become one of the most beloved images in Russian art. Rylov's palette was vivid and joyful, his compositions full of air and movement, his landscapes alive with the particular quality of northern light that makes Russian nature so distinctive. In counted cross stitch, his bold, luminous designs translate into some of the most visually exhilarating pieces in our collection.
