Constantin Gorbatov, also known as Konstantin Ivanovich Gorbatov, was a Russian painter born in 1876 who died in Berlin in 1945. Trained in Saint Petersburg, he left Russia permanently in 1922, lived on Capri and moved to Berlin in 1926. Russian towns and landscapes remained a lasting subject in his work, including during his years in emigration.
Novgorod, an oil on canvas of 1922 held by the Russian Museum, belongs to this body of urban views. In Pskov. Early Snow, painted the same year and now at Khimki’s municipal art gallery, the first snowfall appears beside still-yellow trees and provincial houses. The New Jerusalem Museum holds an extensive collection of his paintings, covering almost every period of his career and offering an overview of his development.
