Painting by S. A. Grigoriev "Goalkeeper".
S. A. Grigoriev is a famous Ukrainian artist, the author of many paintings, the characters of which are children. One of the best works of the painter is the painting "Goalkeeper", painted in 1949.
The action takes place in the schoolyard on one of the warm days of early autumn. In the distance one can see houses, construction sites and a wasteland, hiding in a lilac-bluish haze. The borders of the gate are the bags and caps of the guys.
The protagonist of the picture is a lanky fair-haired boy. He alone looks like a real athlete, he is wearing blue shorts, a sweater, black leather gloves, lowered socks. The boy's knee is bandaged, which shows that this is not the first time he has played. The goalkeeper stands in a tense pose: legs wide apart, leaning his hands on his knees, he follows the actions of the opponent. Behind the goalkeeper is located, his stomach stuck out, his hands behind his back, in a red ski suit, his assistant, ready to catch the ball at any moment.
Spectators were seated on inaccurately folded boards. All of them are of different ages. The game is watched by a man passing by and carried away by the cries of children. The boy in the dark suit and the girl in the red hood are the most "sick" of all. The rest of the guys are more relaxed. All fans are looking in the same direction. From this we can conclude that now they will hit the penalty spot. A small white dog, curled up at the feet of the children, is also watching the game.
The artist managed to unite quite a lot of characters with a single action. Each detail has its place, each character is revealed objectively in his own way. The color of the picture is varied. It has both pale, flesh tones and bright colors.
I, like many boys, like to watch someone play football. Being a fan is a very exciting experience.
I liked the picture, because the artist managed to convey the intensity of football passions.
Description of the painting by S. Grigoriev "Goalkeeper"
Composition plan.
Sergei Alekseevich Grigoriev and his painting "Goalkeeper"
The plot and composition of the picture
The image of the goalkeeper
Sergei Alekseevich Grigoriev was born in 1910.
The theme of youth, physical and spiritual health of a person plays an important role in the artist's work. Grigoriev's children's and school themes are especially frequent. The best works of the artist are dedicated to children. The painting "Goalkeeper" brought Grigoriev well-deserved fame. For some works, including the "Goalkeeper", Grigoriev received the State Prize. It is this picture that will be discussed in this paper.
This picture is very dynamic. The plot is the following. Autumn reigns on the canvas, as evidenced by the dark cloudy sky, yellowing and falling leaves. The guys were returning from school and went to the wasteland to play football. The wasteland is located relatively close to the city, some buildings are visible on the horizon, even the domes of the church are visible. The guys built a gate out of briefcases and school bags, just throwing them on the ground, and an exciting game ensued. The fact that the game is gambling is evidenced by the undisguised interest of the fans. Spectators sit on a stack of boards.
The central character of the picture is the boy-goalkeeper. The goalkeeper is standing, bent over, his posture is tense, he is watching the game with concentration. By his posture, it can be assumed that the ball is still far from the goal. But at any moment the boy is ready to enter the game and defend his goal. The hero wants to be like a real goalkeeper. He has the pose of a professional football player, gloves on his hands. A knee wrapped in a bandage indicates that this is not the first time a goalkeeper has stood on the football field, and he always defended the goal, even at the cost of his own knees. There is a feeling that the boy often watched the game of football and seeks to imitate the players even in clothes. On the boy's feet are lowered stockings and galoshes tied with braid. It can be seen that the goalkeeper is a brave, fearless boy, passionate about his work.
Standing behind the goalkeeper with his hands behind his back is a little boy in a red suit. It seems that he also considers himself almost a professional football player, with the air of a connoisseur, the child follows the game. But he has not yet been accepted into the team.
The eyes of all fans are directed to the right, where there is a tense struggle for the ball. The rest of the players with the ball are not depicted on the canvas, but the intense attention of the audience indicates a hot fight. The man in the hat and jacket seems to be completely captured by the spectacle of the game and seems to want to take part in it himself. In his pose, the artist managed to portray tension and readiness for impetuous movements. The man sits with his legs slightly apart, hands resting on his knees and leaning forward and sideways to where the players are fighting for the ball. The young man is probably a good football player himself. Or perhaps he remembered his own childhood and the same races with a ball in a wasteland.
The boy in the ski suit and red tie is just as passionate about the game. He looks with his head stretched forward and his mouth open. A boy with a baby in his arms and a girl in a school uniform with a red bow in her hair are also watching the game attentively. Other girls sitting on the boards - with a doll, in a hood, in a red hat - are more relaxed about the game, but nevertheless they are watching it carefully. The most calm, even indifferent to the game, characters in the picture are a baby in a downy scarf and a white shaggy dog with a black ear. The child calmly leaned against his brother, and the dog curled up in a ball and doze.
The painting is called "Goalkeeper", and this name reflects the essence of the artist's idea. Grigoriev sought to depict a boy standing guard over the gate.
Despite the fact that the audience does not see the actual football match, it can be understood that Grigoriev displayed one of the most poignant moments of the game. This is felt in the goalkeeper's pose - tense, full of expectation, and in the obvious interest of the audience.
To reveal the idea, Grigoriev uses such means of painting as lighting, color, composition. The construction of the picture is quite simple and reflects the author's intention as much as possible. As we have said, the central place is occupied by the goalkeeper, the main character of the canvas. The goalkeeper is shown in the foreground, separate from the other players on the team. In the background, you can see children and a young man. In the background of the picture, the city, high-rise buildings, residential buildings are guessed. Details play an important role in the perception of the picture. Attention is drawn to the gate built from briefcases and bags, the goalkeeper's bandaged knee.
The picture is solved in warm colors. The artist uses shades of yellow, light brown, red. The earth in the picture is light brown, trampled down, devoid of vegetation, and the viewer understands that this is not the first time a football game has been held on this wasteland. On the bushes and the field you can see golden leaves, reddish-yellow boards play the role of benches for fans. The red tones are reflected in the little boy's costume, bow and cap of the girls. Such colors help the artist convey the intensity of the action, the match.
Grigoriev's painting conveys a feeling of airiness, transparency of the autumn air. The landscape in this work plays the role of a background, it is unobtrusive and executed in rather muted colors: like a foggy city in the background, dark and warm tones of the earth, light soft shrubs. Everything in the picture is subordinated to the main idea of the artist and subtle psychologist: to most accurately portray the young goalkeeper, who is completely passionate about the game and responsibly relating to his role. Grigoriev's painting is a story about children playing football.
Football has always been the favorite game of millions of boys. They always tried to imitate their idols, discussing the latest sports news. In every yard you can meet a small team of local guys. One of these is depicted in the painting by S. Grigoriev.
The action of the picture takes place in the city. In the background we see large buildings that resemble a theater or a university. Judging by the fact that the bushes depicted in the picture are turning yellow, the author showed the beginning of autumn. These thoughts are also led by the fact that the audience is dressed in autumn: in jackets and hoods. The main protagonist of the picture is a boy of about eleven years old, who very carefully follows the movement of the ball and plans to beat off a blow to his goal from the opposing team. He is wearing a brown sweatshirt with a white collar, gray shorts and black boots.
All fans are also closely watching the game. Among them are peers, and a little boy, and girls, and even a middle-aged man in a hat and suit. Next to them is a black and white dog. It is unlikely that he follows the course of the game. Most likely, he is immersed in other thoughts. It is possible that this is a dog of one of the fans. They all look in the opposite direction from the boy, where the ball should fly from. Maybe a penalty shootout. The boy's right leg is bandaged. He most likely received a wound at the next training session. Behind him is another boy. He is wearing an orange suit. Perhaps he was not taken to play in the team, and he is watching from the sidelines. But, unlike other spectators, he did not take a place among them, but behind the goalkeeper, right on the field.
Most likely, this place is not intended for football at all, because there are no gates here, as on a real football field. Instead of them - briefcases indicating the place where the gate should be. I think that the guys gathered after the lessons to relax and play football, because this is a very popular sport.

Composition options
Option 1.
wareveryone was into the game.
Option 2
In the picture of S. Grigoriev "Goalkeeper" we see a football match, players and spectators located in a wasteland. Of the players, only the goalkeeper is depicted, the rest are not visible in the picture. The goalkeeper, judging by the gloves put on his hands, by his serious face, by his sinewy legs, is very experienced and has stood at the gate more than once. The goalkeeper - a boy of twelve - thirteen years old - stood, waiting for an attack on his goal. He's right after school. This is clear from his briefcase, lying instead of a barbell.
The goalkeeper, players and spectators are not on the football field, but on a wasteland not intended for football.
In the background - a boy outside the gate and the audience. Probably, the boy in the red suit plays well, but he was not taken because he is younger than the players. He looks to be only nine or ten years old. But by the expression on his face, he really wants to play.
Spectators of the most different ages: both children, and uncle, and a small child. And everyone is very interested in the game. Only the dog, probably one of the spectators, does not look at the game.
The scene of the picture is Moscow. Stalinist buildings are visible in the background.
It's autumn outside. End of September - beginning of October. The weather is wonderful, warm, because everyone is dressed lightly: in windbreakers, some - kids - in hats, the goalkeeper - in shorts. I liked this picture because it is "alive". I feel the emotions that the guys are overwhelmed with: both the players and the spectators.
Option 3.
Before me is a painting by S. Grigoriev "Goalkeeper". In this picture, the main character is the goalkeeper.
In the foreground is a boy - a goalkeeper. He is standing at the gate. If you look at him, you can say that he is professional in his duties. The goalkeeper has a very serious look. He has a bandage on his right leg, probably, he got injured in the last games. He himself may be expecting a penalty. Behind him stands a boy in a red suit. Apparently, he also wants to play football, but he is not allowed because he is small compared to other players. The guys are after school and therefore they have briefcases instead of barbells.
The audience is in the background. They are all enthusiastic about the game. Each of them is especially interesting, but most of all I like the dog because she is the only one who does not watch the game.
The uncle, sitting on the side, is watching with great enthusiasm what is happening. As if he remembers those years when he was young and played football himself. He is dressed in a suit. In his handbook. So he accidentally watches the game, because. he went out to read it, but could not resist and began to watch the match. Children sit next to him. One girl is especially interesting to me, because she has something incomprehensible in her hands: either a fish, or a doll, or a baby.
S. Grigoriev depicted the moment of playing football. In the picture of the artist - autumn, an obscure day. The bushes and grass have already turned yellow. The kids got together to play football after school. The observers were dressed lightly. In the background, the painting depicts an old industrial city. In the distance one could see a bluish government office with a red flag, damp residential areas, new buildings. The domes of churches are visible in the ancient city. Old buildings shrouded in mist. In an industrial city, the sky is yellow-gray. And in the old - gray-blue. The boys are playing football in the field. The makeshift football pitch has been trampled down.
Spectators watch the game closely. They are infatuated with her. To the right of the goalkeeper are the ruins of a building. Two briefcases represented the gate. From them were visible pioneer ties, corners of books. Next to the goalkeeper lay a white dog with a black ear. The goalkeeper was wearing blue football shorts and a black sweatshirt. His knee was bandaged and his hands were covered with gloves. The boy looked twelve years old (there were wrinkles on his forehead). Next to the goalkeeper was a "referee". The artist wanted to show the excitement of the game. The picture was painted in soft, muted colors in the year one thousand nine hundred and forty-nine. Despite the fact that four years ago endedwareveryone was into the game.
Another girl in a red hat bent over to better observe what was happening. It can be seen that she is not very good at it, because the man blocks the entire view of the guys.
A boy peeks out from behind a girl. He follows the game so closely that he even got all twisted up. Next to him is a girl with a big bow, and below is a boy with his younger brother sitting on his lap, wrapped in anything - he must be hot.
Large houses are depicted in the background of the painting. So they are in Moscow. The picture is autumn.
The sun is already setting, because the sky is starting to redden on the left side. It's time for the kids to go home.
I didn't really like the picture because it was boring. It's time for the kids to go home and do their homework.
. Compositions based on the painting by S.A. Grigoriev "Goalkeeper".

4. Your attitude to this work of art.
I offer the work of students of the 7th grade.
S.A. Grigoriev is a People's Artist, the author of many paintings: “At the meeting”, “He returned”, “Goalkeeper”. He was awarded two Stalin Prizes, three orders and medals.
The most famous was his painting "Goalkeeper", which depicts the game of football. We see the goalkeeper and several spectators of the match taking place somewhere outside the city, in a wasteland. Most likely, it is already the middle of autumn, because you can see a yellow bush in the distance, the sky is covered with clouds, and the clothes of the characters in the picture are autumn: the audience is in raincoats, jackets, some of the guys are wearing hats.
The picture describes the moment of the game itself. We see that the eyes of the fans are fixed on that part of the field that is not depicted. In the foreground is the goalkeeper. Slightly bending his knees, he looks forward. He must be keeping an eye on the ball. His right knee is bandaged, he may have hurt himself during the game. He has gloves on his hands. Clothes are simple, comfortable for the game: sweater, shorts, boots. Behind him we see a younger boy who was not taken to play. Spectators - fans, depicted in the background of the picture, show great interest in the game. The children came right after classes, school bags lying on the ground, marking the borders of the gate, testify to this. All the people depicted in the picture are enjoying the game, perhaps for the last time: after all, it is already late autumn, it will soon become very cold and snow will fall. But no one is discouraged, because in winter there are many other interesting activities.
The painting does not evoke special feelings in me, but looking at it, I can imagine what feelings each character depicted by the artist experiences: excitement, excitement, pleasure derived from the game.
Olesya Naprienko
Sergei Alekseevich Grigoriev is a People's Artist, the author of many paintings: “At the Meeting”, “Admission to the Komsomol”, “Discussion of the Two”, “Goalkeeper”, he was awarded two Stalin Prizes, three orders and medals.
I look at Grigoriev's painting "The Goalkeeper". This picture shows a football match taking place in a vacant lot. But of the players, only the goalkeeper is depicted. Judging by the gloves put on his hands, by the face expressing seriousness, by the sinewy legs, the goalkeeper is a very experienced player and has stood at the gate more than once. He came to the wasteland immediately after class, this is evidenced by his briefcase lying instead of a barbell.
In the background, a boy behind the goal and fans who are closely watching the game. Probably, the boy in a red suit, standing outside the gate, plays football well, but they didn’t take him because he is younger than the players.
The scene of the picture is Moscow, Stalin's buildings are visible in the background. Autumn is in the yard, apparently, the last warm days, because the guys are dressed lightly enough.
I liked this picture because it is alive. I feel the emotions of the audience with which all the characters in the film "Goalkeeper" are overwhelmed.
Elizabeth Sukhoterina
Grigoriev Sergey Alexandrovich is the author of many paintings: “At the meeting”, “Returned”, “Admission to the Komsomol”, “Discussion of the deuce”, “Goalkeeper”. He has the title People's Artist of the USSR. His work was marked by two Stalin Prizes, three orders and medals.
In front of me is Grigoriev's painting "Goalkeeper", it depicts a football match, but not the one we are used to watching. The very composition of the picture is already interesting: we do not see the game, the ball - the goalkeeper and the fans are presented to our attention. The author set himself the task of showing what feelings overwhelm everyone who became a participant or spectator of this match.
In the foreground of the canvas is a goalkeeper, he is the main character of the picture. After classes, the boy decided to play football in a vacant lot. Perhaps it was his lot to be a goalkeeper, it seems to me that he really wants to be a player, fight for the ball, be in the center of the game and help his team.
In the background, a boy is depicted, who himself is not averse to playing, but he is still small. The picture also depicts other fans closely following the game. Each of them is interested in what will happen next, who will win. Even a man passing by sat down on a bench and watched the game with boyish enthusiasm.
Ekaterina Trishina
Of course, the compositions are all different, but they also have something in common: the picture did not leave the guys indifferent, although this is a completely different era, people who are completely different in their inner world.
The material was prepared by the teacher of Russian language and literature Pletneva L.G.
Football for a long time remains one of the most favorite games not only for boys, but also for adults. For them, there is nothing more exciting than kicking the ball into the goal after passing through an endless number of obstacles. This game is dedicated to many films and songs. Do not forget about her and the artists. Interesting is the picture "Goalkeeper". Grigoriev Sergey Alekseevich - the artist who created it in 1949, managed to accurately convey on the canvas all the excitement and emotions inherent in this sports game. Today the canvas is stored in the Tretyakov Gallery, anyone can see it.
Artist biography
A well-known Soviet painter who depicted in his works the life of the younger generation of the post-war era. He was born in 1910 in Lugansk. In 1932 he graduated from the Kiev Art Institute, after which he was engaged in teaching there. In his paintings, the artist raised the problems of the moral education of Soviet youth.
In addition to "Goalkeeper" he wrote such works as "Returned", "Discussion of the deuce", "At the meeting" and others. For his work, the painter was twice awarded the Stalin Prize, as well as several medals and orders. Despite the fact that the artist lived in the Soviet era, his work has not lost its relevance to this day. In the 7th grade, students are offered to write Grigoriev's "Goalkeeper".
Acquaintance with the creation of the artist
Teaching children to be creative is one of the priority tasks of the modern educational system. Teachers offer children to write a description of the painting "The Goalkeeper" by Grigoriev in order to bring them closer to art, to develop their ability to logically formulate their thoughts, to teach them to express their own opinion about what they saw on the canvas. In order to successfully write an essay on the proposed topic, students first need to carefully analyze the scene depicted in the picture.
Starting with S. Grigoriev's "Goalkeeper", it is necessary to remember in what era it was created. 1949 is a difficult time for the Soviet people. After the end of the Great Patriotic War, only 4 years passed, and the country was rapidly recovering. New businesses and homes sprang up. The overwhelming majority of citizens lived in poverty, but the peaceful sky above their heads gave them hope for a brighter future. Post-war children, remembering all the horrors of deprivation and bombing, grew up unspoiled and knew how to enjoy ordinary things. For example, playing football. It is this episode that the artist conveys in his work.
S. Grigoriev "Goalkeeper": an essay based on a painting. Where to begin?
The action described on the canvas takes place in an abandoned wasteland. Children came here after school to play football. The protagonist of the plot is an ordinary boy standing on an improvised gate, the border of which is marked with student portfolios. Instead of benches in a wasteland, there are logs where the fans are located: seven children and an adult man in a suit and hat. Another boy is watching the game, standing outside the gate. That's all, whom the picture "Goalkeeper" represents. Grigoriev also portrayed a white dog. She curled up at the feet of the smallest cheerleader and sleeps peacefully, showing no interest in what is happening around.
When making an essay-description of the painting by S. Grigoriev "Goalkeeper", you need to pay attention not only to the appearance of the football field, but also to the landscapes that are visible behind it. In the background, temples are clearly visible and from which it can be concluded that the action takes place in a big city. The football match took place in autumn, as bushes with yellowed leaves surround the wasteland. Judging by what the smallest fans were wearing, the weather outside was cool, but it had not yet had time to get completely cold.
Meet the Goalie Boy
An essay based on Grigoriev's painting "The Goalkeeper" must necessarily contain a detailed description of the main character. The boy standing at the gate appears to be no more than 12 years old. He is dressed in a blue jacket, from the neck of which one can see a snow-white collar of a school shirt, shorts and shoes. The young goalkeeper has gloves on his hands. His knee is bandaged, but the injury did not stop him from continuing a tense and exciting game. The goalkeeper is slightly bent, and all his attention is riveted to the field, which remained outside the picture. The viewer does not see the rest of the players, and only by the tense face of the goalkeeper can he guess that a serious game is underway and the ball is about to be in the goal. The fate of the match is in the hands of the boy, and he, realizing all the responsibility, tries to avoid a goal at any cost.
Other heroes of the canvas
When compiling a description of the painting "Goalkeeper" by Grigoriev, students need to pay attention to the tension that is present among the fans, where there are both boys and girls. None of the kids can take their eyes off the field. The ball is already very close to the gate, and the intensity of passions has reached the top. The children sitting on the logs would love to join the game, but they are still too small, and the older guys do not take them as football players. But supporting the team is also a very responsible task, and the kids gave themselves completely to it. The most desperate of the boys could not resist and ran out the gate. Realizing that the outcome of the game does not depend on him at all, he still cannot sit still.
Against the background of the kids, an adult man stands out, who also came to cheer for the guys. Description of the painting by S. Grigoriev "Goalkeeper" would not be complete without mentioning this colorful character. It is not known who the depicted man is. Perhaps he is the father of one of the children, or perhaps he simply could not get past the exciting action. What is striking is the passion with which an adult and serious man follows the children's game, how much he worries about its outcome. No less than the kids, this person would like to be on the football field now and pick up the ball from the enemy.
Features of the work
The total passion for football is conveyed by the painting "Goalkeeper". Grigoriev was able to focus the attention of the audience on the emotional side of the game, to show how it captures all those present in the wasteland. Despite its considerable age, the picture is still very relevant today, because millions of people all over the planet are fond of football. It will be interesting for modern secondary school students to describe the plot of the picture, since this sport is familiar to them from an early age.
Grigoriev's painting "The Goalkeeper" is written in rather restrained shades. Its color scheme conveys the mood of the post-war era. Cold gray tones testify to the hard life that befell the people, who with their own hands were forced to raise the country from ruins. And only bright red elements, which stand out especially clearly against a gloomy background, give the canvas optimism and confidence in a happy and cloudless future.
To make it easy for secondary school students to complete the task of the teacher on the topic "Artist Sergei Grigoriev. "Goalkeeper": an essay on the picture", they need to draw up a short plan before creating the text. In the work, you need to make an introduction, then briefly talk about the biography of the painter, and after that go on to describe the plot of the work. Any essay should end with conclusions in which the child talks about what impression he had after a detailed study of the picture. He needs to substantiate his conclusions.
The subtext of the plot of the picture
Why did the artist depict football on his canvas? As you know, collectivism was popularized in the Soviet Union. Football - where each of the participants is part of one system and cannot fully function without it. In the same way, Soviet people were not able to live outside the collective. We can say that the Soviet era is the best way to convey the picture "Goalkeeper". Grigoriev, capturing the team game on the canvas, conveyed the atmosphere that prevailed in society at that time.
