Sinopse
Características

This early work by Nikolai Gogol was originally published in 1835 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. The Mysterious Portrait is a short story about a penniless artist who discovers a magical painting in art shop. The painting offers him the choice of striving to create his own artistic success or to accept its assistance and achieve guaranteed riches and fame. Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol was born in Sorochintsi, Ukraine in 1809. In 1831, Gogol brought out the first volume of his Ukrainian stories, Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka. It met with immediate success, and he followed it a year later with a second volume. The Nose is regarded as a masterwork of comic short fiction, and The Overcoat is now seen as one of the greatest short stories ever written; some years later, Dostoyevsky famously stated We all come out from Gogols Overcoat. He is seen by many contemporary critics as one of the greatest short story writers who has ever lived, and the Father of Russias Golden Age of Realism.
