Korovin captured the beauty of these parts in a large number of landscapes: *Norwegian Port*, *Saint Trifon's Brook in Pechenega*, *Hammerfest: Aurora Borealis*, *The Coast at Murmansk* (all in TG) and others.
A colourist by nature, Korovin made colour the principal means of expression both in his theatrical work and in his easel painting.
Apart from being incurably ill himself, Korovin had an invalid son who could be treated only in Paris, and on the advice of the People's Commissar for Education Lunacharsky, he moved to the French capital.
It is strange that Korovin, a born painter, should begin his studies in the architectural department of the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture.
Korovin’s trip to the Russian North in 1894 had a great influence on him.
Korovin was one of the most brilliant representatives of Impressionism in Russian art and he remained loyal to this trend in painting up to the end of the 1930s.
