Elevate the soul by grandiose images beyond all everyday pettiness.
Mikhail Aleksandrovich Vrubel (March 17, 1856 – April 14, 1910) is usually regarded as the greatest Russian painter of the Art Nouveau movement. In reality, he deliberately stood aloof from contemporary art trends, so that the origin of his unusual manner should be sought in the Late Byzantine and Early Renaissance painting.
