Overcoat

The story "The Overcoat" - one of Gogol's best works, from which much, if not all, of Russian literature emerged - has been illustrated by many artists. Savva Brodsky, who worked on "The Overcoat" in 1978-1981, was particularly successful in depicting metaphor. The earth draped in gray overcoat cloth; the cold St. Petersburg sky, sagging with the flaps of the same overcoat; the figure of a small lonely man, floundering in a huge hostile city ... Reeling from specific Gogol's images, reinterpreting them, the artist showed the historical time that gave rise to them. Brodsky's overcoat is not "a bright guest... who revived for a moment the poor life" of a petty official, but a symbol of the entire Nicholas period.
