The artist is Deineka
Impulse to create a picture "Defense of Sevastopol" served photographs of the destroyed Sevastopol, which Deineka saw in early 1942. The idea of the picture was born with the artist when examining his materials, albums and drawings on Sevastopol, where I had to work a lot before the war. Deineka acutely felt a love of the city, for its inhabitants and sailors who defended his beloved city, and an irreconcilable hatred of enemies who destroyed it.
The composition was based on a furious fight, the opposition of human aspirations, in a separate episode, the main idea of the struggle for the Fatherland was focused in a separate episode. In the winter of 1942, Deineka brought from front -line trips numerous sketches that were used in the work. But this was not enough: the master made sculptural sketches in plasticine, over and over again, checking the correctness of the angles, wrote a naked nature to avoid inaccuracies. He had to invite a familiar athlete for posing, since there was no strong male model in Moscow – everyone went to the front. His "Defense of Sevastopol" Deineka entered the page in the history of world battle painting.
