Symbolic Recognition of Kramskoy's Figurative Painting Language

摘要

In realistic painting, symbol refers to an image with recognition function, and can be a specific image or a painting language with personal style. Kramskoy's paintings take "direct painting" as the main method, and pay attention to the application of realistic modeling elements. The figures in his paintings are clear and profound. From the perspective of semiotics, this paper explores and studies the deep meaning structure of Kramskoy's figurative paintings, deconstructs the "signifier" and "signified" of Kramskoy's painting language, and reveals the painter's ideas, thoughts and the meaning of his paintings through the carrier of space, lines and colors. This is conducive to the deep understanding of painting works, a closer view to the real history and revivification of the original creation of art works.
