Konstantin Alekseevich Korovin was the founder of Russian Impressionism, a master of landscape, portrait painter, and theatrical designer. He was an artist whose canvases radiate joy like light from a wide-open window on the first truly warm morning—and an exile who ended his days far from his homeland, yet with a yearning heart, he resurrected its cherished images on paper.

Fate brought him together with people whose names are forever inscribed in the history of Russian culture: M. A. Vrubel, V. A. Serov, I. I. Levitan, F. I. Chaliapin, and A. P. Chekhov. And in his book, My Life, Konstantin Korovin remains, first and foremost, an artist—but now an artist of words, gifted with the gift of reviving the past. His stories are poignant and simple, like paintings, capturing the artist's beloved Russia and the people he held dear. Every word conveys the pain of separation and love for his homeland, the depth of his emotions and the strength of his spirit.

These memoirs are more than just recollections. They are a story of friendship, creativity, and the relentless search for self.
