Wife

The artist is Ryanggina

Artists, even the singers of the “Life and Life of the Peoples of the USSR” from the Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia, preferred not to portray families, but labor collectives. One of the exceptions is Seraphim Ryanggin, several works of which are related to family problems, with the “female issue”. The film “Wife” (1929) depicts an unexpected visit of a village woman to her husband, who went to the city to study: “In a private episode, the artist embodied a large human drama, brought to the public a conflict, which especially often arose in the first revolutionary years. The people eagerly stretched to a new culture. Young people came to study from the village to the city, to work. For many of them, rising to a new life step, the wife lagging behind the cultural level became alien. They did not return to the family, finding a new girlfriend of life “. Lyubov Shakirova.
