Fyodor Ivanovich Chaliapin (1873\u20131938) was a Russian opera singer who performed at the most prestigious theaters in the world \u2013 the Bolshoi, the Mariinsky and the Metropolitan Opera. Among the admirers of his talent were composers Sergei Prokofiev and Anton Rubinstein, music critic Vladimir Stasov called him a “great artist”, and Maxim Gorky called him a separate “epoch of Russian art.”<\/p>\n
Chaliapin was a “make-up virtuoso” and created stage portraits, adding a bright picture to the powerful sound of the bass. The singer seemed to sculpt his face, contemporaries compared his manner of applying makeup with the canvases of Korovin and Vrubel.<\/p>\n
