The fascinating world of the artist from the rural hinterland

Vladimir Lyubarov - an unusual artist in every sense. You look at his pictures, as he calls his work, and I want to smile. Even if the picture is not very funny.

He lives in a semi-abandoned village Lyubarov Peremilovo on the edge of the Vladimir region, which plunged into a simple peasant reality.

But in this life he has brought amazing characters, birds, beasts, magical creatures, and suddenly became remote village of some fairytale. I would like to wander through its streets, to look into the windows of houses, pet cat that goes for your heels and meet a mermaid in the local river.
