Summary/Abstract: The image of traveller created by I.A. Goncharov in his book of essays “The Frigate Pallada” (1855–1857) has been considered for the first time as a phenomenon of artistic genealogy of the similar image in M.M. Prishvin’s travel essays (1909–1914). This article is focused on the philosophical and aesthetic perception of the world typical of both travelling artists, their creative motivation for travelling and attention towards pictures of nature, which are always associated with the feeling of homeland. An assumption about the similarity of the artistic natures of M.M. Prishvin and I.A. Goncharov and the consonance of their creative thinking is made. This expands the idea of the origin of Prishvin’s world-view and allows us to feel its originality.
