Osip Mandelstam Émil'evich

[Самвел]

(From the series trip to Armenia.) Wrapped his mouth like a wet rose
Holding osmigrannye cells,
All days ago on the outskirts of the world
You stood, swallowing her tears.
And turned away with shame and sorrow
From the cities of bearded east
And now you lie in bed moskatelnom,
And you removed the death mask.

[Pavel]

It is not clear how the family tanners and small traders moved to Pavlovsk, the royal residence and then to St. Petersburg? As the son of the small trader was able to travel and study in any university, it is still worth the money?
And he's really shallow in comparison with the great of the time Blok, Mayakovsky, Esenina and others, the poems that really know all that and in that time there were already great. Remaking history, juggling, scandal.

[Тютчев]

Pavel, you forget Anna Akhmatova. A M. in this series is even relevant. But for only one poem: "Impressionism" I would put the statue during his lifetime! What sense of color! Terrific! ...

Impressionism

M. OE

The artist has depicted us
Deep faint lilac
And paints sounding stage
On the canvas, as scabs, put.

He realized oil thickness -
His parched summer
Purple brain warmed up,
Expanded in stuffiness.

A shadow of something, the shadow of all the purple,
Whistle il whip, like a match, goes out -
You will say: cook in the kitchen
Prepare fatty pigeons.

Guess swing,
Nedomalevany veil
And in this sunny demise
Already hosts a bumblebee.

By the way, Mandelstam in this poem is likely to describe any particular pattern, a particular artist. I wonder which one? Who knows?

By the way, Mandelstam, in this poem is likely to describe any particular pattern, a particular artist.
I wonder which one?
Who knows?

Well, probably this one: Portrait of Anna Akhmatova.
1915 Nathan Altman.
