People's Artist of Uzbekistan, master of genre painting, landscape Evgeny Pavlovich Melnikov was born in 1928 in Buzuluk. (Russia). From an early age he dreamed of becoming an artist. Back in 1948, he came to study in Samarkand and was immediately fascinated by the gray-haired monuments of this ancient city, the many-voiced cacophony of the oriental bazaar, the open, hospitable people of this generous land. But most of all I was struck by the sun, three hundred days a year warming everything around with its bright light. The artist dedicates his life and creativity to Uzbekistan! Here the individual features of his talent were fully revealed, it was here that he became a true master.
