Portrait of Yurii Dudov

Yurii Dudov (1918-1976) was an Honored Artist of Russia and a prominent Moscow painter who received an extraordinary and rare artistic education. After studying at the Moscow Art College under N.P. Krymov, he attended the prestigious Moscow State Art Institute from 1940 to 1944. There, he studied under a legendary roster of masters, including Igor Grabar, Sergei Gerasimov, Aristarkh Lentulov, and Pyotr Petrovichev, giving him an unparalleled foundation in the great traditions of Russian Realism and Impressionism.

This versatile and sophisticated training is evident in Dudov's masterful paintings. His work in the Lazare Gallery collection, "Village Street," is a prime example of his connection to the Russian landscape. The painting captures the authentic character of a rural town with a rich, nuanced palette and a strong sense of atmosphere. The work is rendered with the technical confidence and poetic sensitivity that Dudov learned from his esteemed mentors, showcasing his ability to find beauty in the scenes of everyday Russian life.

The legacy of Yurii Dudov is that of a highly skilled and respected master of the Moscow School, celebrated with the title of Honored Artist of Russia and the Workers' Medal. His work has been widely collected, and can be found in museums in Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, and Kyrgyzstan, as well as in private collections throughout the world, including in Germany, Sweden, Italy, and the USA. For the collector, a painting by Dudov offers an exceptional opportunity to own a work by an artist with a unique and remarkable pedigree.
