Arkhip Kuindzhi

Imagine you were born in a small town, walked to the capital with a caravan, full of desire to enter the Academy of Arts. And… you failed the entrance exams twice.
What would you do?
Arkhip Kuindzhi tried for the third time. We’ll tell you what happened next at the lecture.

Imagine that you fell in love with a beautiful girl. She loves you too.
But you are a poor orphan, and she is the daughter of a wealthy jeweler.
You propose — and you are refused.
You earn your first money — and are refused again. And so… for 12 years.
Could you wait that long?
Arkhip Kuindzhi could.
What came of it — you will find out at the lecture.
