🇷🇺 In 1890, Russian artist Mikhail Vrubel painted his famous work "The Demon Sitting," which was inspired by the poem of the same name by Mikhail Lermontov.

👿 The painting depicts a demon who is a powerful and sorrowful being. He is presented in a romantic and expressionist style, highlighting his complex inner struggle and state of melancholy. The demon is shown in a moment of contemplation, expressed through his gloomy gaze and tense posture. His eyes, filled with bitterness and sorrow, have become a symbol of hopelessness.

🎨 Vrubel employs bright and contrasting color schemes that add emotional depth to the work. The use of deep blues and blacks emphasizes the darkness and tragedy of the demon's image. Vrubel's painting technique, including thick brushstrokes and textured elements, creates a sense of volume and depth.

🖼 This painting has become an icon of Russian art from the late 19th century and symbolizes the artistic aspiration to convey the depth of human emotions. This work is studied and discussed as one of the outstanding achievements in Russian art.

📍 The painting is housed in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow.

❗️Insufficient actions are being taken to minimize the damage from the oil spill in the Black Sea.

🇷🇺 The President of Russia described the situation as very serious and the actions of officials as inadequate.

"From what I see and the information I receive, I conclude that everything being done to minimize the damage is clearly insufficient," Putin stated after listening to the report.

💬 The President instructed to take additional measures. First of all, to establish a headquarters that would operate directly at the site. "It should be led by responsible officials from ministries and agencies who would be delegated directly to the disaster site," Putin emphasized.

🚢 Additionally, it is necessary to "address the issue of stopping the leakage of petroleum products from the sunken tankers," as well as develop plans for raising these tankers. "This is a separate large task, related to the allocation of financial resources. In advance!" said Putin.

📌 He thanked the volunteers for their civic stance and expects more from officials.
