By Ilya Katz charm and distinct expression of masculine energy. Men's games - and the regatta travel, passion naval campaigns - all this is also a native of the romanticism of the early twentieth century, when after reading Jules Verne's boys ran away to conquer the Antarctic and Ocean surf on the "adult" frigates ...

"Boatswain! - Me - You will be the captain. You fix a tarnished sword "- this dream city of romance and the exploits of their sails on the sea battles and travels around the world. On this and "male" pattern of Ilya Katz mid-20th century, he wrote the dream of the wind, new discoveries, deeds and true friendship, paying tribute to the boyish enthusiasm and idealism of the early twentieth century. On what is lacking in us, grown-up - "we are with you for a long time are not the same and do not live the same things, we sleep in the heat, in the middle lane ... And do not indulge us in danger. " Boats moored on the surface of the emerald water, they are so closely on the lake. Flying up the mast yacht in Klyazminsky Reservoir, seemingly endless sea - by the sea, on the shore of which the artist grew up, where he had sought all his life, and so masterfully portrayed in his work. On the sea - and the cycle of his Sebastopol marinas, and the views of the Leningrad port.

Snow-white sailboats on Lake Norman stylistically similar types of bays Albert Marquet, an artist whose work is closely studied in the Hermitage. Remembered coral houses on the far bank - as reinterpreted quotes from French painting sezannistov. Even the gray skies outside Moscow, made complex colors, open and free as the air filled with the smell of the water.
