Gorchakov and Eugenia are at cross purposes, which becomes apparent by their interactions as they travel, as they settle into the hotel, and as they walk about the vicinity of the Cathedral and pool.
Gorchakov suffers a depression of spirit and sinks into his interior world, preferring to be awash in fragmentary memories than to deal with the physical reality that he finds surrounding him.
Gorchakov insists that translating poetry is impossible – which may be true to an extent – but then extends that idea to the arts in general, where it is a less valid statement.

 Synoptique - Transcendental Images of Time and Memory : in Andrei Tarkovsky’s NOSTALGHIA
Instead, Gorchakov and the house are linked through the uninterrupted duration of the long-take, which transforms the Russian countryside and the house into a “sheet of past” of stored memories.
There is a sudden cut to a medium close-up of Gorchakov’s wife (in fl-and-white and slow-motion) standing in a position similar to her husband during the first memory-image.
Gorchakov is then seen standing near a corner, looking at his reflection in a mirror that hangs on a wall in front of him.

 Valentin Gorchakov - Russian Realistic Art 1940 - 1980
Gorchakov, along with other artists enriched the Russian realistic school not only through the use of impressionistic art language of the 1950s, but also through adherence to postimpressionistic influences which Soviet artists had ignored since the 1930s.
The artistic methods used by painters of this period were close to those of postimpressionists; however, the atmosphere that inspired their work was entirely different.
Gorchakov's works are inherent in sincerity and refinement of color solutions, plasticity of forms.

 [ Nostalghia.com | The Topics :: Macgillivray: Andrei Tarkovsky's Madonna del Parto ]
Gorchakov's exile, like Tarkovsky's, is expressed and manifested in a project: the purpose of his trip to Italy is to research the life of Pavel Sosnovsky, an 18th century serf composer whose nostalgia for Russia in Italy drives him to suicide.
Gorchakov goes to the out of the way location for a similar reason: he dislikes tourists.
What Eugenia never realizes is that her humiliation in the sexual pursuit of Gorchakov is predicated upon the basic erotic condition that is set up in the first scene and reinforced throughout the film.

 Alexander Mikhailovich Gorchakov - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gorchakov was born on the 16th of July 1798 in Estonia, and was educated at the Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum, where he had the poet Alexander Pushkin as a school-fellow.
During the Polish insurrection Gorchakov rebuffed the suggestions of Britain, Austria and France for assuaging the severities employed in quelling it, and he was especially acrid in his replies to Earl Russell's despatches.
Gorchakov was not against the sale but always advocated for careful and secret negotiations, seeing the eventuality of the sale but not the immediate necessity.

 Alexander Mikhailovich Gorchakov - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gorchakov perceived that Russian designs against Turkey, supported by Britain and France, were impracticable, and he counselled Russia to make no more useless sacrifices, but to accept the bases of a pacification.
In return for Russia's service in preventing the aid of Austria from being given to France, Gorchakov looked to Bismarck for diplomatic support in the Eastern Question, and he received an instalment of the expected support when he successfully denounced the Black Sea clauses of the treaty of Paris.
Gorchakov hoped to utilize the complications in such a way as to recover, without war, the portion of Bessarabia ceded by the treaty of Paris, but he soon lost control of events, and the Slavophile agitation produced the Russo-Turkish campaign of 1877-78.

 SECRETARY-GENERAL, ACCEPTING MOSCOW AWARD, SAYS STRENGTH OF RUSSIAN SPIRIT ‘IS YOUR COUNTRY’S GREATEST ...
Prince Gorchakov was not only a remarkably skilful diplomat.  He was also a man with an exceptional gift for patience and timing in choosing his moment to take decisive action.  At the same time, he stood by his conviction, as he put it, that “noble goals cannot be reached by means of intrigue”.
I believe recent moves in Russian diplomacy echo Gorchakov’s legacy.  How apt, therefore, that you are holding celebrations next month for the bicentenary of your Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Today, humankind is confronting a world very different from the one Gorchakov lived in.  The complex forces of globalization have created a set of challenges and opportunities he could scarcely have dreamt of.

Lopatnikov, who represents the foreign ministry in Saint Petersburg, argues that Gorchakov's approach to dealing with the outside world remains "amazingly topical today." And he suggests that Russian officials should study three aspects of Gorchakov's approach in order to learn how to act in the future.
As Primakov argued last spring on the 200th anniversary of Gorchakov's birth, this domestic focus both provides an anchor for stabilizing Russia's foreign policy and guarantees that Russian advances internationally can always be justified in terms that other powers are likely to find acceptable rather than aggressive.
In 1864, Aleksandr II formally congratulated Gorchakov for his use of "the force of the word" to disarm the enemies of Russia, an action the tsar said guaranteed that Gorchakov's name would be entered in "the future chronicle of the Fatherland."

 Assessment - Alexander Gorchakov
Prince Gorchakov devoted himself entirely to foreign affairs, and took no part in the great internal Emancipation reform of 1861 in Russia of Alexander IIs reign.
As a diplomatist he displayed many brilliant qualities: adroitness in negotiation, incisiveness in argument and elegance in style.
In the latter part of his career his main object was to raise the prestige of Russia by undoing the results of the Crimean War, and it may fairly be said that he in great measure succeeded.

Arriving at a Tuscan village spa with Eugenia, his beautiful Italian interpreter, Gorchakov is visited by memories of Russia and of his wife and children, and encounters the local mystic, who sets him a challenging task.
The film is filled with mysterious and extraordinary images: a flock of birds springing from a statue of the Madonna; flooded church ruins; Gorchakov's life and death struggle to cross the pool, filmed in a single take; and the final shot, where all the film's images coalesce into a miraculous whole.
As in all Tarkovsky's films, nature and the elements of fire and water, music, painting and poetry, and the contrast of fl and white and colour photography, all play a major role.
