Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin is an interesting and also famous artist who painted a huge number of different paintings. And one of the most expressive is “Morning Still Life”.
The author managed to depict in this picture the usual breakfast that villagers enjoy. From the window you can see that morning has recently arrived. The whole room is filled with the warm and bright light of the sun. In the center of the room there is a small table. And you can immediately see from it that it is not new. It is bright red in color. In addition, there are several scratches on its surface. But on an ordinary rustic table, which is covered with a beautiful tablecloth, there is a small vase containing flowers. The flowers are not only soft blue, but also yellow. Usually such flowers grow in the field. And looking at them you can dream a little and enjoy their beauty and smell them. In addition, the stems and leaves of these flowers are clearly and accurately drawn. In addition to the vase of flowers, there is a plate on the table containing completely unpeeled hard-boiled eggs, and next to the plate there is a mug filled with tea.
The glass stands directly on the plate. In addition, there is also a teaspoon in the same plate. The author managed to draw and draw all the edges of the glass in detail and accurately. Next to the glass is a nickel-plated teapot. But before pouring and boiling the tea, the hostess thoroughly cleaned and rinsed it. That is why you can see everything that is on the table through it. The red cat is nowhere to be seen on the canvas, but through the teapot you can see him on the floor. There is a lid not far from the kettle. And this means that the tea was brewed recently, and the hostess was in a hurry and therefore forgot to close it with a lid. To the left of the kettle is a small matchbox.
If you look a little further, you can see a brown dog. This dog's eyes are sad and filled with melancholy. And with these eyes she looks at her owner. And although its owner is not here, the dog makes it clear that he is next to her and is constantly watching her. If you look at the canvas for a very long time, it may seem that you are the very owner of this dog. The whole picture is filled not only with beauty, but also with light. The author depicts the picture only in bright colors. And because of this, the picture glows with freshness. And although it is simple, there is a hidden meaning in it that every person can understand.
Impression essay 2
A very nice picture and, indeed, morning. The light is so pleasant, the colors are so harmonious. It whets your appetite for a new day!
Here we see the surface of the table, on which there is a teapot, a glass of tea, a bouquet of flowers, a couple of eggs... And a little to the side - near the table - a dog. She looks so pitifully! But she is clearly not homeless, but one of her own - well-groomed. A very cute dog. But she either wants to eat (and there’s nothing on the table) or wants to go for a walk. Like, quickly drink your tea and let’s go for a walk, the weather is so cool! Maybe her owner has already eaten, there are only two half-eaten eggs left, but they can be left. And drink some more tea! Or, on the contrary, he is just getting ready to have breakfast. For example, he is standing at the table, and in his hands is a whole plate of boiled sausages, so the dog is drooling. Although she’s great – she doesn’t even try to climb onto the table! Or the person has already shouted at her, so she is ashamed.
On the table, once again, are various objects. The easiest way is a faceted glass of tea. It's on a porcelain saucer, and there's a spoon here. A glass, like in a canteen or on a train, but without a cup holder, so you have to wait for the tea to cool. A faceted, strange teapot with legs of the same shape. There are the same metal parts from it on the table - parts of the lid or something. That is, this is some kind of ancient, not yet electric kettle... Or at least a small thermos to keep it warm. Two eggs are reflected in his side. It's strange that they are so different! One is small and white, and the other is yellow and large. Lying nearby... Here is a bouquet of wildflowers. There are daisies and bells - white with blue and green. Very beautiful! It is obvious that they simply collected the flowers, did not trim them or arrange them in any way. And the vase is kind of strange, more like an inkwell. Also here, in my opinion, there are matches, blue railings, or even a window sill.
I think this is clearly a man's breakfast. For some reason, it seems to me that some geologist could eat this way on vacation. Of course, there are no napkins, sets, pancakes that a woman would organize - a wife, a mother... The feeling is that, after all, this hero is now going to have a quick snack and go explore the fields. Or, by the way, he’s just an artist. He eats quickly, but does not forget about beauty (the same flowers). And soon he will take an easel, paint brushes and also go looking for beautiful landscapes to sketch.
The colors here are so light and warm. A light “cool” bouquet sets off the warmth of the sun’s rays, wood, even the color of tea. This is clearly summer - in the colors, in the light... Such a pleasant feeling from the picture!
The kettle turned out to be a samovar
At first glance, the painting “Morning Still Life” is a picture of an ordinary country breakfast. But for the attentive viewer this is a real mystery. It violates physical laws, and also has a mysterious connection between objects that themselves are unusual.
One of the mysteries is a faceted metal teapot, unusual to the eye and full of grace. It stands on legs and has two holes. Next to it is a lid, and next to a box of matches is a small pipe. In fact, this item is a travel samovar, which is much smaller in size than a regular one. However, its operating principle is the same. It has two compartments - for coals and boiling water. The legs were removable, like the pipe, for ease of movement.

Description 3
The outstanding Russian and Soviet artist Kuzma Sergeevich Petrov-Vodkin absolutely deservedly stands out among the most talented painters of our Motherland. Tribute is paid to him for his most beautiful delight called “Morning Still Life”.
Several objects of different purposes and different nature are depicted on a smooth wooden table. In the upper corner there is an iron teapot, its edges reflecting the mother-of-pearl and unnaturally bright chicken egg. It is also noteworthy that the author of the picture bothered to depict the red cat in the reflection of the teapot, which is not visible in the picture. The little dog on the floor looks with pitiful eyes, probably expecting a portion of delicious food. In a miniature glass vase, a bouquet of bluish bells and bright yellow dandelions exudes an intoxicatingly sweet scent, calling for unity with nature and peace, saturating the imagination with warm thoughts about the cyclical nature of life, about birth, death, and then birth again. And so from time immemorial. A blue matchbox is captured near a vase of flowers. It’s just not clear whether it’s full or empty. A cut glass of herbal tea is already waiting for someone who will happily tip it into the depths of their stomach, thanks to which it will be able to realize its purpose by nourishing an organism burning with passion with useful elements.
By demonstrating ordinary and routine things, the author of the picture expresses his boundless love for everything that surrounds us, regardless of the degree of importance and scope of purpose. He insists that each thing is valuable in itself, always has certain aesthetic qualities and parameters, which we either ignore or do not notice in the hustle and bustle of everyday running and the crisis of vegetation. You just have to look at them from a different perspective, from a different angle, through the prism of an optimistic worldview - and you will definitely realize all the charm that was indifferent to you before. To learn, change and create - this is the fundamental message of this work. A fascinating and at first unremarkable picture opens your eyes to many things.

Essay-description of the painting Morning still life by Petrov-Vodkin
Looking at the details of the painting “Morning Still Life” by Petrov-Vodkin, I note the use of many colors in conveying the content of breakfast. It is dominated by a warm background and beige shades.
The arrangement of objects is made in the style of looking at objects from the upper space.
Rays of light illuminate the table. It is made of wood and painted golden or varnished with walnut. There is no tablecloth. And yet, the living worker decided to improve his mood and brought a modest bouquet of simple meadow plants.
Before my eyes, in a saucer with a teaspoon, there is a faceted glass. Strong tea is poured into it. Through the transparent form you can see the refraction of the image of the spoon.
On the right are hard-boiled chicken eggs (from different hens: one white, the other with a light brown shell). Perhaps they are for the dog and its kind owner. Here the dog's role belongs to that of a family member. They are on equal terms. This red-haired friend helps his breadwinner in everything, and he generously shares his food with him. He has a smart, understanding look. We can say that he began to completely understand people. Apparently he is five years old or older. He is sitting at a laid table. He wants to eat a boiled egg. But, he is waiting for the command. Maybe all this belongs to our artist, and the action takes place in his village or dacha?
The teapot is polished to a shine and is all glowing. It has two holes for boiling water and tea leaves. One cover lies nearby. The second closed the hole for boiling water. The morning meal is in full swing.
On the left side of the canvas there is a small transparent glass vase. Inside there is a bouquet of field bluebells and dandelions.
I consider the set table to be in a country house. And a lonely man set the table, picking a simple bouquet in a clearing. This is confirmed by a simple breakfast. Not a complicated dish to prepare in the morning and go to work. He has no one except his dog. With whom he talks every day and shares his impressions of the passing day. The man’s income is not large and apparently he has to strictly calculate his budget. But he does not lose heart, carefully cleans and washes the dishes, and decorates his home.

Option 3
The word still life emphasizes the content of this picture. Here, you can consider household items, in the post-war period, and “dead nature.” The shine of the eggs, like the whole picture, indicates that the sun is shining brightly on the table. Such sun can only be in the morning. There is no specific variety in the composition of the products; this is perhaps a light breakfast for a lonely person. Looking at the dog’s kind and piercing gaze, one can understand its attitude towards its owner, who is apparently located on the other side of the picture. But perhaps the dog is also waiting for a gift from the table. Eggs, which have a bright mother-of-pearl color, occupy the first place in the picture; they are the ones that will go to everyone present in this room. They are the first to catch your eye.
A faceted glass of tea and a saucer indicate that the person is extremely careful and patient. A special feature of the picture are wildflowers. Wildflowers were loved by girls who were waiting for their soldiers from the war. But this careless bouquet of simple wildflowers creates a special shade in the picture. Thanks to their color, the brightness and contrast in the picture takes on a special look. An unusually shaped vase speaks of the simplicity of life of the owner of the home, as does a wooden table with benches.
A highly polished samovar, in which you can safely see the reflection of a red, fluffy cat, speaks of the cleanliness of the owner, despite the poor shade of life, he is neat and hardworking. The presence of animals in the picture speaks of the kindness of their owner. Judging by the coloring of the animals, their owner loves the red color.
Another important item in the picture is the absence of a tablecloth on the table. This may indicate that the owner of the home is a widower, or a lonely man surrounded by animals. And the bouquet symbolizes the love that he had in the past. By the open samovar, you can understand that the tea was poured recently.
One interesting thing is matches, they symbolize a person who smokes. Or, matches talk about the process of brewing tea in such a samovar, since the samovar is not electric. Animals are a very valuable part of the picture, because they are waiting for their share of breakfast, and since breakfast consists of two eggs, perhaps one egg will be given to the animals. This is where you can feel all the kindness of humans towards animals.
If we talk about the picture in general, then the picture carries human kindness, regardless of his financial situation. It is in such paintings that one can find the joy that lies in the little things in life, the love for animals, for wildflowers. And the simple life once again emphasizes the neatness and cleanliness of the simple Russian people.
