THE PHILOSOPHY OF NICOLAE GRIGORESCU’S AND VASILY VERESHCHAGHIN’S CREATION (on the basis of the 1877-1878 events)

The creation of Nicolae Grigorescu and that of Vassili Veresciaghin have been considered in scientific works not just once and the works of every artist have been studied not only in his home country but abroad as well. In this article the authors tried a new foreshortening – they focused an aspecst common to these two special plastic artists – the battle theme, approaching the philosophy of Grigorescu’s and Veresciaghin’s creation on the basis of the events that took place during the Russian-Turkish war.
