Pushkin vs George d'Anthès. My original artworks (gel pen).

in #art8 years ago

At the beginning of my Steemit journey I've made posts devoted to the creativity of Great Russian poet Alexander Pushkin. It were two posts with my illustrations to his poetry fairytale "About Tzar Saltan...". In this posts I wrote a little about his biography and I mentioned, that he was killed by George Dantes on a duel. Actually he was not killed at once, but mortally wounded. Pushkin defended the honor of his wife and his family. 

The story of Pushkin's last duel is well known and literature teachers always pay attention on this last episode of poet's life.

Pushkin lived in Saint-Petersburg and so am I. At  Pushkin's times our city was a capital of our country and many great poets, writers, artists, architects, scientists and etc. lived here, thats why till now Saint-Petersburg is called the cultural capital of our country.

But I moved away from the topic. My goal is to represent you my artwork to the Hop Head brewery, again. Two artworks for labels for the craft beer.

The first is called "Pushkin" it is Russian dark ale

                                          


And the second is milk Stout "George d'Anthès"

That George d'Anthès is a handsome chap! Excellent work.

yes, he was, but if you read his biography you could see that he was a bounder

Oh the scoundrel!

Do you have a similar one featuring Dostoyevsky? What is the price for the original artwork?

yes, I have Dostoyevsky, I posted it may be 2months ago
answered in chat about price for the original artwork

In alcohol context Musorgsky would be more appropriate

I like the background information that you share too.

It adds so much to your artwork!

thank you @papa-pepper this is a great part of our cultural history, unfortunately l'm not so excellent writer as you are, in addition, English is not my native and sometimes it is not so simple to express my thoughts :) luckily I can draw ;D

You share well, and what you share is very interesting!!!

Thanks for all that you do!

Oh my gosh how fun is this? It is great to do what you love. It shows in your pieces. Thank you for sharing.

Will there be a Russian dark ale and milk stout drinking duel, too? Hop Head Brewery is fortunate to have you as their artist!
