Hermitage, 2018
Dmitry Egupov’s 2018 painting is a captivating example of realistic landscape art depicting a grand building surrounded by majestic trees. The structure, designed in neoclassical style, boasts impressive architectural details with arches and columns that appear particularly grand against the bright sky.

The artist skillfully uses light and shadow to create depth and realism, bringing vibrancy to the painting.
Dmitry Yegupov
Dmitry Yegupov was born and received his initial art education in Krasnodar. He continued at the Leningrad Art School named after B. V. Ioganson and graduated from the Academy of Arts (Institute of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture named after I. E. Repin). His creative interests encompass the full range of genres — portraits, still lifes, landscapes, and historical paintings. Portraiture occupies a significant place in his work, as does landscape. His professionalism is reflected in his ability to organize the complex space of a still life, where color and composition create a rich picture. His graphic works demonstrate his skill with particular clarity, featuring the lightness and confidence of a master's style across all subjects — landscape, townscape, and the nude.
