Joseph Brodsky is a Russian and American poet, essayist, playwright and translator, teacher. Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1987, poet laureate of the United States in 1991-1992.#nbsp;
In the drawing presented in the Stargift collection, the poet depicted the famous view of Nevsky Prospekt in St. Petersburg, the beginning of which is crowned by the spire of the Admiralty building. "... There is this mystery in St. Petersburg - it really affects your soul, shapes it," Joseph Brodsky said in a late interview about the city where he was born and grew up. Indeed, the atmosphere of Northern Palmyra has become one of the most important factors in the formation of his artistic and life worldview. The city "manifested itself" in his works not only as a powerful cultural background or as a number of topographic details, but also as an independent, artistic image, which largely determined both the structure of the poetic "I" and the creative handwriting of the author himself.
Joseph Brodsky was a talented draughtsman, his style of painting is akin to Pushkin's: mostly sketches with a pen, sometimes colorful pictures with crayons.Joseph Alexandrovich drew, as a rule, casually: on the margins of manuscripts, on the title pages of notes, on scraps of notebook pages, in letters to friends and relatives, sometimes replacing the text with drawings.
The exhibit comes from the collection of Vera Rosenzweig, a girl from the pedagogical institute, in a romantic relationship with whom the famous poet was. Rosenzweig was the owner of a notebook with drawings for a long time, and in 1985, a few years before her death, she gave the notebook to a friend, after which it was kept in a new family for a long time. The sketches themselves were viewed by the curator of drawings and diaries at the I. Brodsky Museum in St. Petersburg, part of whose collection they could become.
