Resumo
Esta dissertação objetiva analisar as ilustrações de temáticas brasileiras produzidas pelo russo-ucraniano David Widhopff (1867-1933), tanto em sua passagem por Belém, entre os anos de 1893 a 1896, quanto aquelas produzidas após o seu retorno a Paris. Na Amazônia, Widhopff dedicou-se a ilustrar especialmente para os jornais O Mosquito, A Província Illustrada e Zig-Zag que, somados aos desenhos produzidos para o livro “Horto” (1910), de Auta de Souza, constituem-se enquanto principais obras analisadas no decorrer deste trabalho. Buscou-se compreender, a partir da representação de personagens e acontecimentos locais por parte do artista russo-ucraniano, a continuidade no interesse de Widhopff em representar contextos e personagens amazônicos, a atenção às temáticas e aos gêneros artísticos em voga no período, assim como as referências do movimento simbolista e art nouveau presentes em suas ilustrações. Esta pesquisa contou com uma bolsa de mestrado FAPESP (processo nº 2022/10872-4) e com uma bolsa estágio de pesquisa no exterior (BEPE-FAPESP, processo n° 2023/11441-0), entre os meses de janeiro a março de 2024, na École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (EHESS).
This dissertation aims to study the illustrations of Brazilian themes produced by the Russian-Ukrainian David Widhopff (1867-1933), during his time in Belém, between 1893 and 1896, and those produced after his return to Paris. In the Amazon, Widhopff dedicated himself especially to illustrating for the newspapers O Mosquito, A Província Illustrada and Zig-Zag which, together with the drawings produced for Auta de Souza's book “Horto” (1910), are the main works analyzed throughout this work. We aim to understand, from the Russian-Ukrainian artist's representation of local characters and events, Widhopff's continued interest in representing Amazonian contexts and characters, his attention to the themes and artistic genres in vogue at the time, as well as the references to the symbolist and art nouveau movements present in his illustrations. This research was supported by a FAPESP master's degree grant (process nº 2022/10872-4) and a research internship abroad grant (BEPE-FAPESP, process nº 2023/11441-0), from January to March 2024, at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (EHESS).
