{"product_id":"judas-fyodor-bronnikov","title":"Judas - Fyodor Bronnikov","description":"\u003cp\u003eA sombre, atmospheric depiction of Judas Iscariot by Russian Academic painter Fyodor Bronnikov, capturing a moment of quiet reflection in a vast, muted landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFyodor Bronnikov, a Russian painter who spent much of his career in Italy, presents a sombre interpretation of the biblical figure Judas Iscariot. The composition focuses on the solitary figure standing upon a rocky outcrop, silhouetted against a pale, atmospheric sky. The artist employs a muted palette, dominated by cool greens, greys, and soft ochre tones, which contribute to the sense of isolation and psychological weight surrounding the subject.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBronnikov was known for his technical precision and his interest in historical and religious themes. In this work, the figure of Judas is depicted not in a moment of active betrayal, but in a state of quiet contemplation or despair. The surrounding environment is rendered with a loose, painterly quality that contrasts with the more defined silhouette of the man. The distant horizon suggests the outskirts of Jerusalem, yet the focus remains entirely on the internal state of the individual. The light appears to emanate from the low sun, casting long shadows and bathing the scene in a melancholic glow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis painting reflects the late nineteenth-century interest in humanising religious narratives, moving away from purely iconographic representations toward a more character-driven approach. Bronnikov uses the vastness of the setting to emphasise the smallness of the figure, creating a visual metaphor for the weight of his actions. The brushwork is deliberate, allowing for a texture that captures the ruggedness of the terrain and the worn appearance of the figure's garments. It is a study in mood and atmosphere, capturing a moment of stillness that invites the viewer to consider the narrative implications of the scene without the need for overt dramatic action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/cascada-de-rincon-grande-jose-maria-velasco\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eCascada de Rincón Grande - José María Velasco — José María Velasco\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/puente-de-la-barranca-del-muerto-jose-maria-velasco\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePuente de la Barranca del Muerto - José María Velasco — José María Velasco Gómez Obregón\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fyodor Bronnikov","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58480265920847,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58480298623311,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58480298656079,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58480298688847,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58480298721615,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58480298754383,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58480298787151,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58480298819919,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58480298852687,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58480298885455,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58480298918223,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58480298950991,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Judas_Poster_CompositorV1_1786349411261.jpg?v=1786769750","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/judas-fyodor-bronnikov","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
