Life

Lev Lvovich Kamenev was born in Ryslk, a town in Kursk Oblast, in 1833 or 1834 . Shortly thereafter, however, the family moved to Astrakhan , where Kamenev attended school but did not graduate because he was needed in his father's shop, a small trader.

The grandfather of the later famous painter Konstantin Alexejewitsch Korovin recognized the talent of the young man and made it possible for him to study at the St. Petersburg Art School. In 1854 Kamenev moved to Moscow, where he was accepted at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture . He studied there for four years under Karl Rabus and Alexej Sawrasow .

From 1862 to 1865 he went on a study trip to Germany, where he studied in Munich and Düsseldorf, and to Switzerland. Returning to Russia, he devoted himself to landscape painting. In 1870 he was a founding member of the Peredwischniki artist group . The climax of his work also fell in these decades.

Lev Lvovich Kamenev died impoverished near Moscow in 1886.
