Pyotr Tutukin

Pyotr Tutukin is an Impressionism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Hermitage Museum.

Pyotr Tutukin painted quiet, upright rooms where light falls through tall windows onto patterned carpets and stiff-backed chairs. In 1852 he set an empty Drawing-Room down in oil, its mirrored surfaces and framed prints arranged like a silent stage. Thirty-two years later, his Drawing Room (1874) returned to the same space, the furniture slightly rearranged but the mood unchanged.

Step inside Tutukin’s calm interiors and notice how the late afternoon sun picks out the gilded frames, then tap Drawing-Room (1852) to see the scene’s first brushstroke.
