Ilya Ivanovich Mashkov: 100 Curated Paintings Ilya Ivanovich Mashkov was a Russian painter known for his bold colour, exuberant still lifes, and powerful sense of form. Born in 1881 in the Don region, he trained at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture and became a leading figure of the Jack of Diamonds group, which reshaped Russian painting in the early twentieth century. His work often centres on still life, where everyday objects such as fruits, bread, and vessels are arranged with striking abundance and physical presence. Using vivid colour and thick, deliberate brushwork, he transformed ordinary subjects into compositions of energy and weight. His paintings balance decorative richness with a strong structural foundation, reflecting the influence of Post-Impressionism, especially Cézanne. Ilya Mashkov: 100 Curated Paintings presents a carefully assembled selection of his work, offering a broad and immersive view of his artistic range, from early modernist experimentation to later, more controlled compositions. Part of the My Private Art Gallery series, this volume presents his paintings in a refined gallery format, encouraging slow, attentive viewing. The intention is to recreate the experience of encountering art in a quiet, uninterrupted space.
