Summarize the text in English. Unit 53 TEXT The Belated Arrival and Sombre Glories of Russian Art Part I There are important parallels between the two great emerging powers of the nineteenth century, the United States and Russia—their infinite vastness, consciousness of immanent strength, and nervousness in confronting omni-triumphant European culture. Both produced great art during this period, but whereas American achievements are at last beginning to be understood, in all their magnitude, the process of exploring Russian painting has scarcely started. This is all the more surprising in that the great Russian writers of the century, like Turgenev, Tolstoy and Dostoevsky, were read and recognised at the time, and composers like Mussorgsky, Tchaikovsky and Rimsky-Korsakov quickly became part of the international repertoire. Although an academy was established at St Petersburg in 1757, it was primarily a place where neo-classical sculpture of the most derivative kind, and portraiture with lingering elements of iconism, were taught and practised.

The Americans had the heritage of Europe, above all of Britain, to cherish, argue with and repudiate. Russia merely had a 'dark backward and abysm of time'. It needed a great history painter to illuminate it, and by bringing certain specimens into the harsh light of modern vision, to encourage the nation to explore the rest of the forest. That is exactly what was done by Vasily Surikov (1848-1916). He came from Siberia, and he brought to academic life in the capital, and formal society in Moscow (where he received his first major commission to decorate the cathedral, in 1876), a sense of the illimitable space of Russia, reflected in the size, depth and heroism of his canvases. His work is mainly to be seen at the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, and shows that, right from the start, he was obsessed by the past: the Christian past, as in Saint Paul Explains the Faith to
