Abstract
The article presents the results of research on a number of previously undescribed works by Yuri Pimenov, an academician of the USSR Academy of arts and people's artist of the USSR. The author for the first time carried out a comparative analysis of three paintings from the collection of the State Art Museum of Altai Krai – “Railway station”, “Apple Trees in the rain” and “Decorating the column”. Here coloristics, composition and plot of paintings are studied. The author analyzes the motif of the way and road, the characters of each painting, and describes the color scheme of the paintings. Similar features and motives have been identified in paintings belonging to the pre-war, post-war periods and the time of Great Patriotic war. The described paintings deepen the idea of Yuri Pimenov as an artist of the war years.
