Jasper Quarry on the Korgon River, 1880-1897: A Glimpse into Siberia's Geological Wonders by Pavel Mikhailovich Kosharov This stunning oil on card painting by Russian artist Pavel Mikhailovich Kosharov captures the breathtaking beauty and raw power of nature at Jasper quarry on the Korgon River in the late 19th century. The image presents a footbridge spanning the river, connecting the steep banks of the valley. The bridge, a delicate structure in the face of the forceful running water, serves as a meeting point of two frontiers: the civilized world and the untamed wilderness. The painting showcases the vibrant colors and contrasts of the scene. The quarry, rich in semi-precious jasper, is depicted as a geological marvel, with the red and orange hues of the stone contrasting against the lush greenery of the mountainside. The river, a powerful force of nature, carves its way through the landscape, eroding the banks and shaping the terrain. The painting is part of a larger collection of works by Kosharov, which includes paintings, lithographs, sketches, studies, and drawings that capture the diverse landscapes, cities, and villages of Siberia, as well as the faces and way of life of its indigenous peoples. This collection, held at the National Research Tomsk State University, offers a unique glimpse into the rich heritage of Siberian art and science during the 19th century. The painting's title, "Jasper Quarry on the Korgon River," serves as a reminder of the importance of scientific exploration and discovery during this period. The image invites us to reflect on the beauty and complexity of the natural world and our place within it, as well as the ongoing efforts to understand and preserve our planet's unique geological features.
