Easter Procession 1915

Boris Kustodiev’s *Easter Procession* (1915), depicts a group of figures in traditional Russian dress, carrying icons in a celebratory procession. The scene takes place in a lush countryside setting, under a vibrantly colored rainbow. The work’s bright colors and lively composition capture the joy and celebration of Easter in Russian Orthodox culture. The painting's size, at 20 x 28.5 cm, makes it an intimate yet powerful depiction of faith and tradition, now on display in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow. *Easter Procession* represents a significant piece in Kustodiev's body of work, demonstrating his unique talent for portraying everyday life with an underlying sense of national pride.
