Opens the description, of course, one of the top-лотов — work is graphite pencil on paper "still life with porcelain figurines on the fireplace and the reflection in the mirror" (1933) one of the best Russian artists of first half of XX century Konstantin Andreevich Somov — sketch "a Date", (1933, private collection). The picture wins an amazing mixture of elements of portraiture and still life. The main characters of this work are depicted so precisely that without difficulty discern their prototypes. Image of girl with braids, the artist used portrait study oil, written with a young artist Valeriya Bogdanova-Успенской in September 1933 to his summer house in Granville (now kept in the Museum Ashmolean, Oxford). For the young man's head, according to-видимому used one of the many drawings of Boris Snezhkovskogo, permanent sitter in the 1930 Luba-е years. Moreover, connoisseurs will surely learn Somov and still-life part of the composition. Fireplace and porcelain figurines — part of the furniture of the Paris apartment of the artist, which he repeatedly portrayed in his works. Meanwhile, the scene of Dating, despite the recognition of prototypes and the environment, — is an example of compositional skill and unique imagination of the author. The picture was a success and was highly appreciated by the artist, as soon as he was almost exactly transferred to canvas and filled with color and light coming from the left side of the invisible window and if the saving of porcelain figurines and girl look from the twilight mirror.

Section of scenery made up of three works. A small cardboard George G. Nyssa "Yakhroma. Windy" (1956) — is a full-scale etude in the technician "a la prima", written, as indicated by the expert, large, wide, dynamic, textured brushstroke, masterfully conveys windy as a summer day. "The bridge" (1957) Andrei Borisovich Grositsky — early student days the work of one of the most interesting artists other art. "Everest. 8848 m." — is large (100 × 130), filled with power and air striking work of contemporary artist-фотореалиста Sergei Andreyevich Geta.

the Followingdirectory partition — portraits. It opens with a pencil drawing "Two girls" Lev Alexandrovich Bruni. In 1976 written "Male portrait," Anatoly T. Zverev. As the expert believes, it belongs to the typical samples of custom-made portrait of the late period of the artist. At this time, the beast was fond of decorative techniques to create their things, brevity and expressiveness of the artistic gesture. He successfully managed to combine naturkost, expression and decoration. Additional individual personality traits model gives a discreet color work. "Family portrait" (2015) of Natta Ivanovna Konysheva — sample embodiment of one of the favorite themes of the artist and a reason to think that in our family portrait — is primarily and necessarily a portrait of a happy family, and each other's individuality and peculiarities of the surroundings, noticed by the artist, give scope for the imagination of the viewer.

are Not portraits, but abstract and anthropomorphic images appear on canvas "Illuminated through the blinds" (1996) Gennady Troshkov and "Mirror dreams" (2015) Konstantin Khudyakov.

Section of the still lifes are three bright canvas. Very beautiful work, "untitled (Two bouquets in vases blue)" Aaron Froimovich Buch: its noble flavor defines the blue palette, but the palette of colors it is extremely broad. "...the Color, rhythm, form, line, texture have their psychology, — according to the author of "still life with lemons" (2013) Lydia A. Kazarin, — and an artist, mastering the language, you get endless opportunities to create an expressive image". The work relates to the work of recent years, when the author turned to cubism and abstraction. The work of her husband Victor Semyonovich Kazarin at this time, we have provided a light, airy, Sunny and joyful composition "still life with red pears" (2003).

two works of our catalogue belong to the hand of the sixties Vladimir Nikolaevich Nemukhin. This is a very interesting pair: the picture of the "Theater of the figure. Hearts and Clubs" (1996) and caddy porcelain "Theatrical figure" (2014), hand-painted porcelain artist based on sketches by the author. "My interest in art porcelain originated long ago, — told Nemukhin, — when I have mastered in depth the experience of the first Russian avant-garde. The ideological importance of “propaganda porcelain” I never felt, as, indeed, all connoisseurs of this art form. I was interested in purely aesthetic perspective, revolutionary approaches, techniques, and methodology of work with this material". To put his ideas in China of the sixties for the first time only in the early 1990-х, and Nemukhin was the first, whose most important software appeared on the white material. The main characters of the "Theatre" series Nemukhin — cards, and we have a great opportunity to see how the author works with their heroes on the plane and in space.

Three works made up of string abstraction. An example of pure abstraction supports the work of marker and pencils on paper "untitled" (1968) bright representative of the Leningrad underground Evgeniy G. mihneva-Войтенко. "Composition" (late 1950-х — beginning of 1960-х) Lidia Alekseevna Masterkova made in a rare techniqueaquatopia, based on the principles of making marble paper, which is used for French binding: paint nabryzgaûs ' in a cuvette with a specially prepared solution, and they give a nice spread. Then, — according to the expert, — on the water surface is placed a blank sheet of paper, neatly promarinuetsya and removed from the solution. The result is an unusual, beautiful abstract work. Geometric abstraction (with elements of landscape) presented "Composition" (1985) classics of nonconformism Eduard Arkadievich Steinberg. It is almost a reference visual expression of creative credo of the author, the artist himself stated: "the Internal concept of my works... is based on a synthesis of mystical ideas of Russian symbolism of Teens and plastic solutions Kazimir Malevich's Suprematism..." (E. Steinberg. 2000, source: artinvestment.ru).

Photo "Artifacts" (1979) from the series "the Centers of curved space" of the sixties Francisco Infante-Араны reflects a kind of dialogue between nature and culture (what the person brings to that nature), who the artist is for the most part his creative activity: "For me it is fundamentally important not to violate any natural clutches. Nature should remain in the same original form. I bring its elements only at the time of shooting, and then putting them away. The materiality of my objects is very ephemeral... in my works I do not multiply natural objects, I change it... Brought me an object changes the nature around him, reflecting her, it converts. It's a metaphor" (source: aroundart.ru).

The smallest in the current directory was a section of the genre. One canvas and one buildable lot. Most (70 × 140) multi-figure fantasy-размышление — pictorial composition "Istra" (1988) Konstantin Nikolaevich Kuznetsov. The work is striking in a variety of textures of paint, the complexity of the filling which resembles the technique of the artists-дивизионистов, as well as a kind of "Association game" with the viewer: in one of the paintings the author managed to collect a lot of friends every art lover images — of the figure, reminding one of the "Slaves" by Michelangelo, to the kneeling angels in the spirit of the early Renaissance. To the poster "Give the motor the Soviet border", printed in 1931, with a circulation a hundred thousand copies attached to original pattern — pencil sketch of the Central figure made by the author of the poster Nikolai Borisovich Terpsihorova. Creative kitchen of the artist is always interesting, and the new owner will have to perform as an artist came from the sketch to the finished work.

Those who are going first to buy a painting or drawing, would be helpful to know that no monitor ever authentic will not give works of art. Color, texture, not to mention the aura of a particular work, the impression from the meeting with her, the monitor is not subject. Good thing he can do at least wishy-washy, and not very good, on the contrary, to embellish (the last one we have, but it is fair to say it's worth). In addition, each person sees and feels by-своему. So come see all the work with my own eyes we have, forGorokhovsky, 7 (only need to call and make an appointment).

we Wish you all a good bargain and good shopping!
