Alexander Koshkin's illustration for russian tale "The Great Snake" by Pavel Bazhov.
The character of Poloz the Great Snake is based on the Ural legends, miner's omens, and on the superstitions of the Khanty, the Mansi people, and the Bashkirs. The legends about Poloz, a giant serpent 6–10 meters long, still exist at the Urals. In the Bashkir folklore there is the character the Master of Gold, which can appear as various animals, including the snake. At the Urals he is also called The Serpent or The Snake King (Russian: Змеиный царь, Zmeinyj tsar). It is believed that the grass turns yellow where he touches the surface. Poloz and the snake trails in general indicate the location of gold. Slowworms are his servants.

This is so gorgeous, the colder tint on the body colouring makes me think of Alexander Koshkin
This painting is an amalgamation of elements from 5 different scenes from a random story got into my head last Thursday at 2 am, and technically contains none of the plot details from any of them. It does allude to some of the events but doesn't depict them literally, because how do you fit an entire plot in one image that is not some form of sequential art?
The image itself aesthetically has some elements from a few of my older pics, I suppose.
#probably not the best example bc the dude in the illustration is literally dead#but there is this Vibe

I was given this book, Heroes, Monsters and other Worlds from RUSSIAN MYTHOLOGY by Elizabeth Warner for my third birthday. The illustration by Alexander Koshkin depicts the Russian peasants destroying their idol of the formerly beloved god Perun, who, their leader has told them, they are now required to despise. There is nothing new under the sun, as it says in the Bible. #iconoclast #iconoclasts #blm #vandalism #icantbreathe https://www.instagram.com/p/CBgNNPzg2Vk/?igshid=1q8c0gjphjshq

Alexander Koshkin's illustration for russian tale "The Dancing Fire-Fairy" by Pavel Bazhov.
Her name in Russian Огневушка-поскакушка (Ognevushka-poskakushka (lit. "the hopping fire girl").
Bazhov's stories are based on the oral lore of the miners and gold prospectors. In their stories, she is a dancing girl who shows the location of gold. The help of such mythical creature would explain why some miners were luckier than others, and unexplained natural phenomena such as the location of gold. She is sometimes called the daughter of Poloz the Great Snake from "The Great Snake" tale.
