Titov Dmitry Vasilyevich is a Soviet painter and graphic artist. He is an Honored Artist of the RSFSR.
In his works, he followed the best traditions of Russian national painting, combining lyrical landscape elements with an epic perception of nature. He was born in 1915 in Petrograd. He graduated from the Leningrad Art School, where he studied under V. Oreshnikov (1939). Immediately after graduation, he joined the front. Demobilized in 1943 due to injury, he settled in Moscow and quickly became acquainted with the city's artists. His landscapes were recognized by S. Gerasimov, P. Sokolov-Skal, and V. Fedorovsky. In 1951, he participated in the design of the VVC pavilions and successfully completed an order for the new building of Moscow State University.
In 1951, his painting "Spring Rings" received widespread attention at the All-Union Art Exhibition. He also participated in the All-Union exhibitions of 1954 and 1957. Among the artist's forest landscapes, his painting "The Thousand-Year Oak" is the most famous, which presents a new interpretation of the legacy of the great Russian landscape painter.
