Summary:
In this article, the image and figurativeness of the short story genre, artistic 
character and characters taken to the level of character, and issues such as the expression of their 
artistic-aesthetic and spiritual concept are discussed. analyzed on the example of "big" stories. The 
author's skill in character creation is revealed. Also, the article expresses the views on the relative 
classification of characters that are often found in the writer's stories. 
Keywords:
 artistic, scientific, image, imagery, concept, aesthetic ideal, portrait, landscape, 
character, nationality, psyche, spiritual interpretation, plot, traveling image. 
It is known that the real essence of artistry is determined by image and imagery. Imagery is a 
category related to the main feature of artistic thinking, socio-historical development, human 
lifestyle, general processes in society, and aesthetic views. “And the image consists in describing 
and expressing existence, human psyche in certain forms” [1:21]. The most important features and 
essence of image and imagery are manifested in truly artistic works. So, any artistic work reflects 
the creator’s way of thinking, way of thinking, aesthetic ideal, in a word, the concept of the author. 
At this point, it can be said that the basis of the author's concept is implemented through the system 
of images reflected in the work. The image is the lifeblood of the artistic work, the root of the 
arrow. Image is "a form of thinking in literature and art, a means of artistic perception of the world 
and man, a general category of art" [2:43]. 
Y.Mahmudov, who conducted research on Luqmon Borikhon’s works, in particular, his 
stories, emphasizes that the plot of the writer's stories does not obey the existing theoretical rules as 
a feature of the writer's stories. That's why the combination of plot elements in the writer's stories, 
the presence of an invisible level of order in chaos shows the originality of the plot of the works. 
The researcher pays attention to the dialogue between characters, the poetic formation and nature of 
character and conflicts, and manages to distinguish and discover the difference and originality of 
the plot of Luqmon Borikhon’s stories from the works of other writers. Emphasizing that he has a 
unique style in creating images, he sees the fact that the characters he created move from one work 
to another, that is, the characters in short stories and novels, first of all, appear in his stories, as an 
aspect that has not been found in any other writer shows. The researcher's views are somewhat 
controversial, because such cases are an existing phenomenon in our literature. In particular, the 
heroes of several stories, short stories and novels of our great creator Oybek (the character of 
Gulnor, “Fanorchi Ota”, “Qutlugʻ Qon”) acted as yeast. 
The same aspect of literary style is analyzed in the article of the researcher U.Roziyeva 
“Travelling characters in the works of Luqmon Borikhon”. That is, in the writer's prose, an 
episodic character is depicted in one of his works, and as a main character in another. "The 
migration of images can be observed in Balzac in world literature, his characters such as Gobsek, 
Father Goriot, Rostinyak, Nusingen are the main characters of one work, and are mentioned as 
characters in other works. In Uzbek literature, we will limit ourselves to giving an example of Said 
Ahmed’s “Horizon” trilogy (“Ufq” trilogy). Characters such as Ikramjon, Nizamjon, Dildor, 
Azizkhan roam around in the trilogy. In L.Borikhon’s works, the situation is slightly different: a 
character in the novel moves to another story or short story. In Uzbek literature, such a situation can 
be found only in this writer" [3:44]. In fact, Luqmon Borikhon’s image creation skill is unique, he 
does not abandon some images in his literary works, and he transfers them from story to short story 
to novel. One of the works describes the hero's childhood and adolescence, while the other depicts
