Nicolai Fechin (1881-1955)

Nicolai Fechin was born in Kazan, Russia, in 1881, where he was trained at the Kazan Art School, which was founded by his grandfather. Further study at the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts in St. Petersberg was followed by the hard years that followed the Bolshevik Revolution. Eventually immigrating to the U.S., Fechin found work teaching and exhibiting in New York. Fame would find Fechin upon his move to Taos, necessitated by tuberculosis. In the Southwest Fechin focused his work on the local inhabitants, painting dramatic, richly colored and inpastoed works. At the height of his career, Fechin started an art school in Santa Monica, where he died in 1955.
