Fair in the village 1927

"Fair in the Village" is a woodcut created by Russian artist Boris Kustodiev in 1927, the year of his death. The scene depicts a bustling village fair, filled with people, animals, and goods for sale. The artist's characteristic bold lines and use of black and white create a dynamic and energetic composition, capturing the lively atmosphere of the event. The towering church steeple in the background provides a sense of scale and tradition. This artwork is a great example of Kustodiev's unique style, known for its celebration of Russian folk life and culture.
