He was an active member of the Abramtsevo art circle and worked on decorative panels, paintings of Venice and Spain. During his work on a portrait of the poet Valerii Briusov , Vrubel noticed that he was losing his sight and the realization that he would not be able to paint aggravated his mental condition. In the spring of 1910, in a fit of depression and despair, Vrubel stood in front of an open window, hoping to catch a cold; he died when the cold turned into pneumonia.
