Vladimir Vasilievich Stasov. (№ 405399)

I am ready to sing each of his paintings, my soul sings.
What space! The artist is marvelous!
What power! What a flight!
Russian spirit and image in it
In the spaces of the powerful incarnated.
From God, apparently given
To him the epic canvas,
Both directness and simplicity,
And frankness trait,
And the strength of the spirit is high.
