The Russian landscape painter Alexey Savrasov lived in the middle of the 19th century. He was overwhelmed with grief at the loss of several of his children and he used alcohol to blunt the pain and anguish. The effects of psychoactive substances and especially alcohol have been linked closely to creativity. His life story demonstrates the bitter relationship between the bottle and the muse. He became dependent on alcohol, his family broke up and he was fired from work, his creativity declined and his health deteriorated. At death, he was a lonely and a forgotten man and only two persons attended his funeral.
俄罗斯风景画家阿列克谢·萨夫拉索夫生活在19世纪中叶。他因失去几个孩子而悲痛欲绝,于是借助酒精来减轻痛苦和 anguish。精神活性物质尤其是酒精的影响与创造力紧密相连。他的人生故事展现了酒瓶与缪斯之间苦涩的关系。他变得酗酒成瘾,家庭破裂,工作被解雇,创造力衰退,健康恶化。去世时,他孤独且被人遗忘,只有两人参加了他的葬礼。
