The image of a Russian orphan girl, hardworking and kind, simple and modest, excited the artist's sensitive heart and inspired him to create the picture. However, this picture is not an illustration for a fairy tale. Vasnetsov created not a fairy-tale character, but a true image of a poor peasant girl. The painting "Alyonushka" was painted in 1881 and is in the Tretyakov Gallery.

Plot
The painting, based on Russian folklore, looks like the personification of the melancholy-kruchinushka of the people. This is not so much Alyonushka, who lost her brother Ivanushka, as all the female fairy-tale images that were tested according to the plot.
Nature is both a place of events and an active participant in them. Vasnetsov's landscape is psychological, it is a mirror of the souls of the heroes. Alyonushka, frozen on the stone, seemed to be lost in this tall grass. Her skirt is gathered like from meadow flowers, her hair is like sand, and her shirt is like stones.
The forest is young, but dark - you can see that it is easy to get lost in it and disappear. Or meet inadvertently other heroes of the Russian epic. The pond is mirror-smooth, as if no one lives in it: not a fish, not a frog, not a bird. Deathly silence and melancholy.
Context
Vasnetsov worked on the painting in Abramtsevo on the estate of Savva Mamontov. By the way, there were a lot of those who found Alyonushka's similarities with the philanthropist's daughter Vera - the same famous "Girl with Peaches". The artist denied this and recounted a case of meeting with a peasant woman: “Alyonushka seemed to have lived in my head for a long time, but in reality I saw her in Akhtyrka when I met one simple-haired girl who struck my imagination. There was so much melancholy, loneliness and purely Russian sadness in her eyes ... Some kind of special Russian spirit breathed from her. "
Pond in Akhtyrka, 1880
Having made several sketches and sketches on the banks of the Vori River and by the pond in Akhtyrka, Vasnetsov returned to Moscow, where he was completing work on the painting in winter. Its original name - "Fool Alyonushka" - contained the very longing about which the artist wrote. A fool, that is, an orphan, abandoned by everyone, destitute. But even without this word, everything is felt, everything is clear.
The fate of the artist
Born into the family of a Vyatka priest and at first was going to follow in his father's footsteps. But in the last year of the theological seminary, he left his studies and went to St. Petersburg to enter the Academy of Arts.
At first, Vasnetsov wrote on everyday subjects. Subsequently, he developed the so-called "Vasnetsov style" - an epic and historical basis with a strong patriotic and religious bias.
Vasnetsov, 1891
Vasnetsov was both a religious, a portraitist, a decorator and a graphic artist. In addition, he was an architect - according to his designs, the church in Abramtsevo, the facade of the Tretyakov gallery, the Tsvetkovskaya gallery and his own house with a workshop in Troitsky lane were built.
During his lifetime, they began to call him the hero of Russian painting. To a greater extent, this is due to the volume of the cultural layer that he raised in his work. The breadth of themes and forms of embodiment, genre diversity and skill delighted contemporaries.
History of the masterpiece: "Alyonushka" Artist Viktor Vasnetsov. | Why was "Alyonushka" originally called "fool"
Viktor Vasnetsov - Alyonushka. 1881. Oil on canvas. 173 × 121 cm
State Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow
The story was based on the fairy tale "About Sister Alyonushka and Brother Ivanushka". Alyonushka, tired of the fruitless search for her brother, sits in a lonely position on a large stone by a gloomy pond, bowing her head to her knees. Anxious thoughts about her brother Ivanushka do not leave her. Alyonushka is grieving - she could not keep track of her brother - and with her the nature around ...The artist began work on the painting in 1880. First, he painted landscape sketches on the banks of the Vori in Abramtsevo, by the pond in Akhtyrka. Preserved 3 sketches of that time.

Sedge, 1880
In Vasnetsov's painting Alyonushka, the landscape is very magnificently painted in which Alyonushka is closely interconnected with nature, which is also saddened, like our heroine Alyonushka.
In the picture, not a single fragment distracts the viewer from the main thing, at the same time, every detail of the picture is material for thoughtful reflection.Viktor Vasnetsov. Sketches for the painting "Alyonushka", 1881
Initially, Vasnetsov called the painting "Fool Alyonushka", but there is nothing offensive or ironic about the artist's attitude to his heroine. The fact is that the word "fool" in those days was called holy fools or orphans. Let's remember a fairy tale - after the death of their parents, Alyonushka and her brother Ivanushka are left alone, and desperate to find a naughty brother, Alyonushka feels like an orphan, lonely and abandoned.Some critics insisted that this is not a fabulous image, but the embodiment of the orphan lot of poor peasant women, which could be found in every village. An old sundress with faded flowers, disheveled hair, rough bare feet in Alyonushka give out not an abstract fairy-tale character, but a very real girl from the people.
The work was completed in the winter of 1881 in Moscow, after which Vasnetsov sent it to the Traveling Exhibition. The critic I.E. Grabar called the painting one of the best paintings of the Russian school.
Vasnetsov himself spoke about his picture as follows:“Alyonushka” seemed to have lived in my head for a long time, but in reality I saw her in Akhtyrka when I met one simple-haired girl who boggled my imagination. There was so much melancholy, loneliness and purely Russian sadness in her eyes ... Some kind of special Russian spirit breathed from her.Victor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov

During the classes
1. Organizational moment (1 minute)
2. Introduction (1 minute)
Being an admirer of the work of any artist, as for the first time, you gaze at the long-familiar canvases, which still delight with the majestic depth, bright palette of colors, but, as before, are shrouded in a mysterious haze. Let's plunge into the magical world of the fairytale artist Viktor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov today and enjoy the role of art critics, connoisseurs of beauty, "little" writers when working with the plot of the painting "Alyonushka".
A story about the life and work of the Russian painter V.M. Vasnetsova (student speech, 3 minutes)
"It's good to be the son of an artist after all!" - thought Volodya Vasnetsov, lying on the grass in the garden. No one has a home like theirs. Daddy invented it himself. What an amazing house! Fabulous tower-tower. Made of thick logs, folded, with a high tower. And the roof above the tower, curved like a tent, just like in fairytale palaces. The rooms are large. The furniture in the house is all wooden, solid, decorated with carvings, antique lamps, strips of colored tiles on the stoves, paintings and photographs on the walls. And it smells so amazingly of turpentine and paints!
Papa is a famous artist - Viktor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov. He is very strict, his word in the house is law. Even at the table, only he and the guests can talk, and children must listen and keep quiet. The most interesting thing about the house is, of course, on the second floor. A twisted wooden staircase leads upstairs. There is a workshop. Nobody is allowed to go there, especially when papa is working. And if someone comes in, he should not interfere and tell everyone what he saw there. It is not for nothing that an angel is painted on the wall by the door with a finger pressed to his lips - “the angel of silence”.
The workshop is huge, the ceiling and windows are tall - so that there is a lot of light. And papa's pictures are also tremendous - he even climbs a step-ladder to paint the top part. And on the canvases there is just anyone! Ivan Tsarevich rides the Gray Wolf. Baba Yaga flies in a mortar. Terrible! A fang sticks out of his mouth, and he holds the baby under his armpit! And here is Koschey the Immortal sitting on the throne, holding a bloody sword in his hand! There Princess Nesmeyana is yearning, The flying carpet flies over the mountains, over the valleys ... The frog princess is dancing at the feast: she waved her sleeve, and swans flew out of it. And, of course, three Russian heroes, proud and fearless.
Daddy says little. But sometimes in the evening you come to him, and he begins to talk about himself:
I grew up in a village, not far from Vyatka, there were ten houses there. There are six of us brothers, and we all share the same boots and sheepskin coats. In the summer it's good, all day on the street and in the forest we run barefoot, in only trousers. Well, in winter, more and more people sat on the stove and listened to fairy tales. The day is short, the nights are long and dark, and it seems that there will be no end to winter. Let's light a torch - a stick is so wooden, it burns, crackles, the fire is small, fluctuates from side to side, and the shadows walk around the camps. It seems that someone is about to jump out of a dark corner, either a devil or a Baba Yaga.
That is why they stand up as if they were alive in papa's pictures! And my grandfather, Mikhail Vasilyevich, was a priest in the church. A widely educated person himself, he tried to give children a versatile education, develop inquisitiveness and observation in them. The family read scientific magazines, drew, painted in watercolors. Great-grandmother Olga Alexandrovna was fond of painting in her youth. Papa was breathtaking with happiness when grandmother opened the lid of the old chest where the paints were.
Papa, too, at first wanted to become a priest, studied at the seminary, but then went to Petersburg, to enter the Academy of Arts. He was so not sure that they would accept him that, having passed the exams, he did not even show up to find out the results. I studied at the Drawing School for a year, when I decided to try my luck again at the Academy, I was surprised that I was enrolled in it last year.
At first, daddy painted pictures about poor people, and then he wanted to create a fairy tale ... He says that every nation has its own fairy tales, and in them the character is clearly visible. I remember his words: "I have always been convinced that the whole whole image of the people, internal and external, with the past and the present, and perhaps the future, is reflected in fairy tales, songs, epics, dramas."
One of papa's contemporaries wrote: “The talent of the artist must be great, his personality is bright and pure in order to take possession of the viewer, to fill him with a wave of genuine feeling! Such phenomena are not often encountered - Russia should be proud of such an artist as Viktor Mikhailovich. "
A story about a painting by V.M. Vasnetsov "Alyonushka" (student performance, 2 minutes)
Have you been to the Moscow State Tretyakov Gallery? Not?! Then I invite you to enter the magnificent fairytale hall. Look at one of the paintings ... Viktor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov "Alyonushka".
Alyonushka walked through the forest. I walked around the spruce forest. I walked along the birch forest. And she went out to a dark pond-lake. A dark and deep lake. I'm tired. She sat on a pebble by the water. And the water in the lake is dark and heavy. Like lifeless water. It will not splash. It won't budge. Alyonushka is sitting on a pebble. Duma thinks. Not funny. Sad and sad.
Viktor Vasnetsov had the same feelings in his soul after he read the fairy tale about Alenushka in Afanasyev's collection of fairy tales. The artist had heard this tale more than once in childhood, it touched him deeper and stronger than others, the melancholy melody that came from the bottom of the river sunk into his soul, and the whole poetic situation of the tale with its triumph of truth. Vasnetsov thought about Alyonushka, and the idea of his new composition became clearer and clearer.
“Alyonushka,” the artist later said, “as if she had lived in my head for a long time, but in reality I saw her in Akhtyrka when I met one simple-haired girl who struck my imagination. There was so much melancholy, loneliness and purely Russian sadness in her eyes ... Some kind of special Russian spirit breathed from her. Critics and, finally, myself, since I have a sketch of one orphan girl from Akhtyrka, have established that my "Alyonushka" is a natural genre piece! Do not know! May be. But I will not hide the fact that I really looked into the features of the face, especially into the radiance of Verusha Mamontova's eyes when I wrote “Alyonushka.” Here are the wonderful Russian eyes that looked at me and the whole world of God in Abramtsevo, and in Akhtyrka, and in Vyatka villages , and on Moscow streets and bazaars and forever live in my soul and warm it! "
Igor Grabar, with his characteristic clarity, defines the qualities of the picture:
"V. M. Vasnetsov in 1881 creates his masterpiece -" Alyonushka ", either a genre or a fairy tale, - a charming lyric poem about a wonderful Russian girl, one of the best pictures of the Russian school." (The whole story is accompanied by the music of PI Tchaikovsky "Seasons. October")
3. Making sense of the picture
So Viktor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov became, whose "bright appearance ... is inextricably linked with kind gray-blue eyes, a long, light-blond beard converging with a" chisel ", with a huge semicircular palette, wide brushes, a drill and a long - once blue, and now a faded robe, picturesquely smeared with non-washable oil paint ", a little closer to us. "A true hero of Russian painting" - as his contemporaries called him. And now we have an amazing opportunity: to penetrate deeply into the world of one of the painter's magnificent creations.
- Conversation with students on the painting (5 minutes)
(Conversation is a kind of work that is familiar to students, but no less effective. The role of the teacher is to direct the conversation in the right direction, not forgetting that the topic of the conversation is the work of V.M.

The teacher pays special attention to the students' speech, its accuracy and imagery, notes the emotionality of statements.)
Take a close look at the reproduction of the painting. Who do we see in the center? (Alyonushka immediately attracts our attention. She is depicted almost in the center of the canvas, facing the viewer).
Why are there no other characters in the picture besides her? ( To emphasize her loneliness, the artist did not place other characters in the picture).
Why did V. M. Vasnetsov call his work "Alyonushka"? (Probably, the painter wanted his composition to be associated with the famous Russian folk tale).
Determine with the help of which morpheme the word "Alyonushka" is formed? (Suffix - ear).

The mouth is slightly open, as if the heroine is talking about something, referring to someone unknown) ...
- Tasks that contribute to the verbalization of spectator impressions
- “According to folk legends, nature gains the ability to feel in harmony with a person, especially at the end of the day. Similar feelings, as I. Dolgopolov writes in the article “V. Vasnetsov ", are inherent in the artist himself. That is why the state of nature with the feelings of the heroine is so organically coordinated in "Alenushka". Let's take a closer look at the state of nature from different angles of composition. (Fragments of the painting are offered to students)
Why did the artist choose the autumn landscape? ( Withering of nature, sadness, but at the same time extraordinary beauty and an abundance of colors).

Brown grass, reddish autumn foliage, yellowed greens emphasize the general brown-green tone of the picture. sedge greenery, pink flowers on Alyonushka's sundress and a blue blouse.Using bright, contrasting colors, the artist enhances the impression created by the painting).
Pay attention to the composition of the painting. Viktor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov uses a leisurely, detailed letter, clearly depicting each element of the picture, the composition is built on a strict rhythm, on the smooth flow of the lines of the heroine's figurine with a bowed head and tilts of plants, which brings melodiousness to the picture, showing the close relationship between man and nature, which protects peace girls.
How are the trees in relation to the heroine? (They closed in a semicircle behind the heroine's back, sheltering her from the hostile world. Symmetrically, right and left, as if embracing and soothing, stopped at the same distance young slender aspen trees, on one of which are chirping swallows - cute bird-friends.

Dear friend! You've probably seen the paintings of V.M. Vasnetsov "Carpet-plane", "Ivan Tsarevich on the Gray Wolf". But…
(But today I want to tell you about the wonderful painting "Alyonushka", which you can see in the State Tretyakov Gallery. She deeply moved me.).
Music and poetry contribute to a deep perception of works of art, awareness and experience of their themes. Pay close attention to what is happening on the screen now, listen to the enchanting sounds of music.
(Video clip for the song "Alyonushka", lyrics by A. Usachev, music by A. Pinegin, performed by E. Romanova using fragments from the animated film "Alyonushka and Brother Ivanushka", Soyuzmultfilm studio, Moscow, 1953
The sun rolled into the thicket, the gloomy forest around the wall,
Alyonushka was disgusted with how she should live alone now.
There is no dear mother with her, no dear father,
Tears drip onto the pebbles by the forest lake.
Who will dispel bitter thoughts, who will help her in trouble?
Only one reed with sedge is reflected in the water.
And my dear side is getting sadder and sadder,
It's a pity Alyonushka does not know what will happen next to her.
The girl will meet happiness and will find her love,
Oh, how fun it is to hope, knowing the fairy tale in advance).
What is the reflection of the picture of V.M. Vasnetsov "Alyonushka" in this video clip and music? (A sad song, performed in a very gentle, ringing voice, the plot of an animated film to a famous fairy tale, which gave the idea of writing a picture, and the painter's canvas itself merged together, giving the audience new sensations and impressions of an already known masterpiece).
(All the tasks of the lesson fulfill one of the main tasks of the teacher - to make it clear to children that in art nothing is depicted just for the sake of the image - otherwise it is not art. The image is only a practical goal, a product of labor, but through it the artist always expresses his attitude to the depicted person, their thoughts and feelings.
The practical activity of students, activity on the perception of art, when they act as a spectator, mastering the experience of artistic culture, has a creative character. Only in the unity of the perception of works of art and their own creative practical work is the formation of the figurative artistic thinking of children.
A very important methodological principle is the unity of perception and creation. Training provides for a harmonious balance of theory and practice. Even the most interesting story of the teacher is not enough, the participation of the students themselves is necessary. The understanding of the true value of art should be strengthened in the minds of children from lesson to lesson dedicated to working with canvases of artists.)

The remarkable composer S.V. Rachmaninov said: "The highest quality of any art is its sincerity." Today we have been fully convinced of this.
From the writings of students
“Alyonushka sits on a large stone, sad and sad. The cheeks are ruddy, the mouth is open, and in the eyes there is a deep melancholy. She is wearing a sundress and a blue blouse, her bare feet are tucked under her. Before her is a calm gloomy pond, the water in it is cold. Sedge stalks shot up like arrows. Fallen leaves, like swans, float along the smooth surface of a quiet backwater. A dense, dense forest falls asleep in the coming twilight. The yellowed birches, like guards, protect the orphan. Little songbirds, like girlfriends, sympathize with the poor girl.
I admire this picture, feeling delighted, because V.M. Vasnetsov was able to show a deep understanding of the soul of the Russian people. "
(Slinkina Ekaterina)
“Alyonushka walked through the dense forest. She sat down on a large pebble and sulked. Slender aspen pity the girl. The swallow girlfriends sing a sad song. In the dark, mirror-like water of the pond, leaves float like butterflies. Sad eyes, head bowed to the knees. Alyonushka thinks sad thoughts ... "
(Nikolaeva Svetlana)
“Sad Alyonushka sits on a pebble with her hands folded on her knees and her head bowed. Sad about something about his own. In an old sundress with red flowers. Around the girl there is a fairy forest - the orphan's protector. Thin aspen trees nearby comfort her. A pensive pond, mirror water is deep ... "
(Shipitsyna Sophia)
“The name of Viktor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov is well known to all art lovers. He created a wonderful fairy gallery. "Ivan Tsarevich on the Gray Wolf", "Three Heroes", "Baba Yaga" and many other paintings delight many generations. Among them there is a touching work "Alyonushka", written in 1881.
Autumn. The shore of a forest pond. Alyonushka sits on a stone thinking a great thought. Her bare feet were drawn in, and she laid her sad head on tightly clenched hands. An old sundress and a blue blouse for the heroine. The expression on his face is sad, his eyes are full of tears, his mouth is slightly open, he sighs with grief.
A large gray stone has a pool, the water in it, like a black mirror, reflects the entire appearance of Alyonushka. Young aspen, like girlfriends, bow their camp nearby, and their leaves whisper among themselves, and swallows echo them. These songbirds are barely visible against the background of a dense forest, which, like a guard, quietly and sternly protects the heroine from a hostile world.
Dust. The sky is cloudy. The breeze barely moves the foliage of the yellowed birches. The state of nature is sad, quiet, sad, everything goes through her grief together with the orphan.
V.M. Vasnetsov used cold, gloomy, dark colors that convey sadness and loneliness. But in contrast, there are also bright shades of colors that serve as an expression of hope, faith and love.
The artist managed to convey the state of the Russian soul in difficult moments of life and the complete harmony of nature in sympathy for her. "
(Rybin Mikhail)
Don't be too harsh. They are still learning. The main thing is that they have a great desire to learn. So, everything will work out !!! I believe in them, my students !!!

V.M. Vasnetsov "Alyonushka"
(for children of primary and secondary school age)
(Children sit in a semicircle in front of a screen in the twilight. The lesson uses a video presentation with pictures and illustrations and a video presented in the text)
1. Introduction:
"I am a storyteller, an epic, a guslar of painting!"
V.M. Vasnetsov
“All my life I have been striving as an artist to understand
to unravel and express the Russian spirit "
V.M. Vasnetsov
(A recording of the Russian folk song "Spilled, Spilled, Fast River" is played)
... Once upon a time there was an old man with an old woman, and they had a son and a daughter. The daughter's name was Alyonushka, and the son's name was Ivanushka. The old man and the old woman died. Alyonushka and Ivanushka were left orphans. Alyonushka went to work once and took Ivanushka with her. Here they are walking along a wide field. Ivanushka wanted to drink.
Sister Alyonushka, I'm thirsty.
Wait, brother, let's get to the well.
The heat is falling from my feet, and the well is far away, the sun is high ...
This is how this famous and beloved Russian folk tale about Alyonushka and brother Ivanushka begins from childhood.
Probably many years have passed since you first heard this tale, but nevertheless it, simple, uncomplicated, continues to excite you with its deep poetry and sincerity. The image of an orphan girl, a hard worker and a suffering woman, simple and modest, hardworking and kind, runs through many works of Russian folklore.
In different fairy tales, her fate develops in different ways, various trials and adversities fall to her lot, but the main idea of these fairy tales is the same - this is the victory of a light, noble principle over dark and evil forces.
(Reading the poem "Girl in the Forest" to the sound of the instrumental version of the song "Spilled, Spilled, Fast River")
What are you crying about, girl
In the brooding wilderness
By the lake where they waver
Gray reeds?
Why did the tears flash
And they pour on the grass! " -
“I'm waiting for a little mermaid,
I call her, I call!
Nobody responds, -
And I'm bored alone!
It's so unfriendly around
And the forest is so empty.
(M. Pozharova)
2. Presentation of a masterpiece:
(Presentation of the painting by V.M. Vasnetsov "Alyonushka")
The touching tenderness and deep poetry of the tale about Alyonushka excited the sensitive and responsive heart of the artist Viktor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov. There are many paintings in Russian art that captivate and excite us from childhood. But, perhaps, in the power of the embodiment of feelings, in the depth of penetration into the world of fabulous images, "Alyonushka" is hardly equal in world art.
... Among the dense forest, a pond strewn with golden leaves froze. The gloomy autumn sky hung low. Young fir-trees with greenery beginning to darken froze in silence; under the light oncoming breeze, the leaves of slender aspens seem to whisper. The sad, brooding Russian autumn has already come into its own. A quiet sadness is spread in nature, which is beginning to fade.
Not the triumphant golden autumn attracts the artist's attention, but the first time of autumn wilting, the quiet sadness of young trees trembling under the gusts of the cold wind. There is some kind of special touching in these fragile and thin, like the girl herself, trees on the bank of the creek. But not only nature is in tune with the mood of the girl, in harmony with her state of mind.
Vasnetsov's painting Alyonushka, inspired lyrically in a fabulous way, according to the well-known Russian fairy tale Sister Alyonushka and brother Ivanushka, although the prototype for writing this picture was a really real girl, the artist noticed in the Akhtyrka estate, deciding to write it in his conceived picture. The image of this simple Russian girl with a somewhat sadly melancholy gaze prompted Vasnetsov to create a picture of Alyonushka, translating his creative color and lyrical fairytale relationship, from which a purely Russian spirit, breathes in the conceived picture. Sister Alyonushka, tired of searching for her lost brother Ivanushka, sits in a lonely position on a large stone, sadly leaning her elbows on her knee by a gloomy pond, in a dense coniferous forest, she is dressed in a Russian dark gray shabby sarafan, barefoot, her eyes reflect sadness and sadness, where are you, my brother Ivanushka, maybe the evil Baba Yaga turned her brother into a goat, all the time these disturbing thoughts do not leave Alyonushka that she did not follow her only brother, even nature itself is sad with her.
3. Dialog.
In Vasnetsov's painting Alyonushka, the landscape is very magnificently painted in which Alyonushka is closely interconnected with nature, which is also saddened, like our heroine Alyonushka. In the picture of Alyonushka, not a single fragment distracts us from the main thing, at the same time, every detail of the picture is material for thoughtful reflection.
Look at the color scheme of the painting, and you will feel that it is no coincidence that the artist resorts to soft tones of dark green, blue, yellow, red-brown colors of nature. Autumn faded, yellow-brown colors of the landscape, echoing the color of the dress, the girl's hair, complement the main lyrical sound, create a mood of quiet sadness, sadness. And at the same time, the artist introduced other tones into this modest color scheme, contrasting with the autumn colors of nature. These are pink flowers on the girl's sundress, the delicate blueness of her sweater, the bright green of sedge and a light streak of dawn that appeared in the dark sky. The introduction of these bright sonorous tones further enhances the emotional impact of the painting.

4. Re-referring to the introduction.
Let's go back to the beginning of our meeting and once again listen to the poem:
What are you crying about, girl
In the brooding wilderness
By the lake where they waver
Gray reeds?
Why did the tears flash
And they pour on the grass! " -
“I'm waiting for a little mermaid,
I call her, I call!
Nobody responds, -
And I'm bored alone!
It's so unfriendly around
And the forest is so empty.
M. Pozharova
What is common in the mood of a poem and a picture?
5. An appeal to the hero of a masterpiece.
Looking at the picture, it is impossible not to empathize with Alyonushka - the artist shows her tiredness and sadness so heartfelt and vividly. Both the girl herself and the nature around her are written so realistically that it seems: take a step - and you will find yourself on the shore, you will smell the water, you will be able to talk to Alyonushka.
Dear guys, imagine that we can talk to Alyonushka, what would you say to her, advise how you would support her?
6. Reflection.
Guys, I ask you to continue the phrase:
Seeing the painting "Alyonushka" I felt ...
Turns out…
7. Donating associations.
Today I do not want to end the lesson on a sad note, because the fairy tale has a happy ending.
There is such a legend. After the Moscow society learned that the peasant woman with whom Viktor Mikhailovich wrote his "Alyonushka" very happily married, the village girls who came to work in Moscow always stopped at the picture. They believed that "Alyonushka" would share her happiness with them.
In those days, many fairy tales were composed by the people and written by various Russian writers, but all these fairy tales were imagined only mentally in the minds of the people, in the picture of Alyonushka the artist was able to visually express his work with pictorial means, as in many of his other fairy works, saturated with Russian epic and Russian spirit.
The sun has sunk into the thicket,
Gloomy forest around the wall.
Alyonushka got upset,
How can she live alone now?
There is no dear mother with her,
No birth father.
Tears are dripping onto the stones
Near the forest lake.
Who will dispel bitter thoughts,
Who will help her in trouble?
Only one reed with sedge
Reflected in the water.
And darling side
Everything is sadder and sadder.
It's a pity Alyonushka doesn't know
The girl will meet happiness
And his love will find
Oh how fun it is to hope
Knowing the tale in advance.
