Russian Art
Ivanov, V. I.
"On the Oka River". 1972
Notes: On the Oka River.
Viktor Ivanov's contemporary work borrows heavily from the traditions of Russia's past. Both "A Man is Born" (1969) and "On the Oka River" (1972) deal with the universal theme of motherhood, a subject in Russian art dating from the imagery of icons and folk painting.
