VALENTIN SEROV

Student: Kaimakova Maria LINb-1802b


Life and
Work
Serov was born in
Saint Petersburg,
son of the Russian
composer and
music critic
Alexander Serov
and his wife and
former student
Valentina Serova,
also a composer
in her own right.
Serov married
Olga Trubnikova
in 1889. His wife
and his children
were the subject
of many of his
works. Notably,
his painting
Children was of
his sons Yura and
Sasha.
During his late period, which began
in 1900, Serov was a member of
"The World of art", an influential
Russian art association and magazine
which grew, in part, out of
dissatisfaction with the Itinerants
movement.
The last years of Serov's life were
marked by works on themes from
classical mythology. While
addressing images from the ancient
tradition, Serov endowed classical
subject matter with a personal
interpretation.

stenocardia (an

angina) that
eventually led to

failure due to
severe
complications.
