The Russian son of an Italian sculptor, Karl Bryullov studied at the Imperial Academy from 1815 to 1821 under the guidance of Andrei Ivanov (1772-1848). He settled in Rome between 1823 and 1824 and had major success with The Last Day of Pompeii, (1830-3; St. Petersburg, Russian State Museum), inspired by archaeological research, Pliny's account, and Pacini's opera (1825). The work reputedly moved Bulwer-Lytton to write his novel The Last Days of Pompeii (1834).

A combination of Raphael's classicism (it includes references to the Fire in the Borgo), realistic accuracy, and melodramatic Romanticism, it was admired by Sir Walter Scott and exhibited to great acclaim in Rome, Milan, and Paris. Bryullov visited Greece, Turkey, and Asia Minor, returning to Russia in 1835 to become a professor.

He undertook decorations for St. Isaac's Cathedral, St. Petersburg (1843-1847), and executed a huge historical subject, The Siege of Psk   ...  [Displaying 1000 of 3011 characters.]  Artist bio
