Description

The "troic" painting of Mykola Samokysh captures with a mastery a vibrant moment of life in the Imperial Russia, representing with remarkable precision and emotionality the elegance and skill of the so -called "troika", a sled thrown by three horses. This work stands out not only for its subject, but also because of the way Samokysh manages to create a dynamic atmosphere through its composition and its use of color. When observing the painting, it is possible to feel the immediacy of the movement; The horses, with their strength and agility, seem to wrap in a dance that reveals both the tradition and daily life of the region.

Samokysh, a prominent representative of realism in Ukrainian painting, performs in "Troic" a visual deployment that combines the historical narrative with the representation of the snowy landscape, which frames the scene with a slight mantle of tranquility despite the central action. The horses, magnificently connected to each other, show a defined musculature and a brightness that denotes both their vitality and its overflowing energy. The sled, which seems to slide with grace over the snow, provides a sense of speed that feels almost tangible, causing the viewer to experience the impulse to move forward.

The color palette is another notable aspect of the work. The cold tones of the winter landscape are contrasted with the vibrant ranges of the warm tones in the costumes of the figures and the details of the sled. This contrast not only adds depth to the scene, but also underlines the warmth and camaraderie that embodies the collective trip, an intrinsic element to the culture of the troika. In addition, the use of natural light, which is gently filtered through cloudy sky, infuses painting an almost poetic atmosphere, where the everyday rises to an almost mythical plane.

The group of characters that accompanies the sled contributes a human and social character to the work, although it does not occupy the center of attention. These travelers, with their typical clothes, add a narrative background to the scene, integrating the human figure at a time that they celebrate customs and the community. The expressions of the characters suggest a mixture of joy and concentration, reflecting the duality of rural life in a work and celebration environment.

The relevance of "troic" is not limited to its technical skill; It also offers a nostalgic vision of life in times where the elements of the natural environment were the basis of the daily existence of communities. This painting is a testimony of an era and a way of life that, although it no longer exists, continues to resonate in collective memory.

In sum, "Troic" by Mykola Samokysh is a work that transcends his time, encapsulating not only the spirit of a particular period of the history of Russia, but also the essence of the human bond with nature and cultural traditions. The artist's ability to combine the movement, color and narrative in a single work makes this painting a central piece of the Ukrainian artistic legacy, admirable both for his technique and for his emotional burden.
