This son of a peasant family was later to become one of the most important and characteristic painters of the artistic circle "Boys of Diamonds". In 1900, in the melting pot of the arts, Moscow, his creative abilities came to the fore. At the prestigious Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, Mashkov studied under the influence of Konstantin Alekseevich Korovin and Valentin Serov. However, Mashkov's artistic free spirit was so impetuous that he was expelled from the school in 1909. However, this did not diminish his career. Instead, it took his creative spirit on trips through Western Europe, Turkey, and Egypt. Mashkov became a member of the "Mir iskusstva" and "Jack of Diamonds" clubs, and although he lived in Moscow, he never lost touch with his rural roots.
His creative work withstood the test of time and reflected the color revolution of the 20th century. The artistic innovations of such greats as Paul Cézanne and Henri Matisse were echoed in Mashkov's paintings, in which the full energy of folk art was unleashed. His work stands out for its turbulent color expression, imbued with vital energy and combined with the laws of primary symmetry - a characteristic of urban folklore. The artist achieved a special degree of expressiveness in still life, his favorite genre. Here he dramatized color contrasts, condensed forms, and exaggerated texture to create powerful pictorial formulas.
Over the years, Mashkov proved his versatility. In addition to the main genre of "Jack of Diamonds," still life, he also created theatrical, shocking portraits. In the 1920s and 1930s, the artist tried to combine his innovative achievements with the refinement of old master paintings. Although he later followed the principles of Socialist Realism, he remained true to his great love of nature and continued to create masterpieces. Mashkov's work gained international recognition, and his works were presented in numerous exhibitions, including the Salon d'Automne, the Salon des Indépendants, and the Exposition Internationale du Cercle de l'Art Moderne in Amsterdam. In 1924, his works even found their way to the United States and Venice.
His unparalleled talent was also recognized in the commercial arena. In 2013, during Russian Art Week in London, Christie's sold his "Still Life with Fruit" for a record $7.3 million, far more than the original estimate of $1.5 to $2.3 million. This painting, described as "the finest example of Russian neo-primitivism," was painted in 1910 and presented to the public at the first "Jack of Diamonds" exhibition in Moscow.
