Description
English: The portrait of Luka Petrovich Ovsyanikov, the protagonist of the short story The Peasant Proprietor Ovsyanikov by Ivan Turgenev (from the collection A Sportsman's Sketches).
Picture to yourselves, gentle readers, a stout, tall man of seventy, with a face reminding one somewhat of the face of Kriloff, clear and intelligent eyes under overhanging brows, dignified in bearing, slow in speech, and deliberate in movement: there you have Ovsyanikov. He wore an ample blue overcoat with long sleeves, buttoned all the way up, a lilac silk-handkerchief round his neck, brightly polished boots with tassels, and altogether resembled in appearance a well-to-do merchant. His hands were handsome, soft, and white; he often fumbled with the buttons of his coat as he talked. With his dignity and his composure, his good sense and his indolence, his uprightness and his obstinacy, Ovsyanikov reminded me of the Russian boyars of the times before Peter the Great...

Русский: Портрет Луки Петровича Овсянникова, главного героя рассказа И.С. Тургенева «Однодворец Овсянников» (из цикла «Записки охотника»).
Представьте себе, любезные читатели, человека полного, высокого, лет семидесяти, с лицом, напоминающим несколько лицо Крылова, с ясным и умным взором под нависшей бровью, с важной осанкой, мерной речью, медлительной походкой: вот вам Овсяников. Носил он просторный синий сюртук с длинными рукавами, застегнутый доверху, шелковый лиловый платок на шее, ярко вычищенные сапоги с кистями и вообще с виду походил на зажиточного купца. Руки у него были прекрасные, мягкие и белые, он часто в течение разговора брался за пуговицы своего сюртука. Овсяников своею важностью и неподвижностью, смышленостью и ленью, своим прямодушием и упорством напоминал мне русских бояр допетровских времен…
