Catalogue of the Auction № 301.

this time the catalog was very interesting and a wide variety of aspects and genres. It opens with a portrait section, which turned out to be two of our top-лота.

"portrait of a girl in a flowered headscarf" (1893) belongs to the brush Adolf Levitan, brother of the famous Russian landscape painter Isaac Levitan. The expert notes "a convincing transmission of the character and create a penetrating image of the model" the features of the creative manner of the artist with counterparts in other his works. During the period of study at the school of difficult financial situation repeatedly forced the brothers to ask the management of the school to exempt them from tuition fees. Financial assistance from the leadership received the two brothers as "which great achievements in art" (source: plyos.org). Later Adolf Levitan worked in magazines as an artist-оформителя, Illustrator. In 1883, probably realizing that his talent is somewhat broader solution to the design task, Adolf Levitan addressed to P. M. Tretyakov, asking "how many-нибудь to help" in going abroad for "the improvements in painting," but, in all likelihood, this request remained unanswered (source: ibid). In the years 1886-1911 Adolf Levitan worked a lot in the techniques of drawing and watercolors; wrote portraits, landscapes, genre paintings, his works were exhibited at the exhibitions of Moscow society of art lovers. Out of the needs of the artist could not, and today his work remained not much (source: ibid). It is exceptionally rare at auction author whose single work is stored, in particular in the state Tretyakov gallery, Shumsky local history Museum, Russian Museum and are occasionally found in private collections.

the Second top-лот — on canvas "the Mower" (1933) of Sergei Vasilyevich Malyutin. The expert quoted by I. E. Grabar, who wrote about Malyutin: "...an absolute, unique,... a huge, gleaming picturesque talent...". Canvas small (52,8 × 22.3 cm), he is confident with a brush, lively, fresh and clean.

Watercolor painting "untitled (Female portrait)" (1973) was created Yevgeny Leonidovich Kropivnitskogo in a recognizable manner — fantasy, easy, light, tender.

Draw sheet in mixed media "Jack of Mayakovsky" (2014) Vladimir Nikolaevich Nemukhin — is one of the famous nemuhinskie of omega. Using a famous image of the famous poet, the artist performed a consecration to him by means of his author's unique visual language.

In the next section we have collected landscapes.

European, most likely Swiss, the town depicted in watercolor "view of the city in the Alps" (1860-80-е) Luigi (Ludwig Osipovich) of Premazzi — academician, one of the leading masters of perspective painting in Russia in the middle — in the second half of the nineteenth century virtuoso technical possibilities of watercolor.

Skill at building perspectives and the transfer of the illusory nature of space and distinguishes the works of academician of landscape painting Petr Petrovich Vereshchagin, the author of the canvas "view of the city on the Danube (From a trip to the theatre of war Russian-турецкой war)" (1877-1878). The — one of the top-лотов directory — refers to a series of Danubian landscapes depicting placesthe most significant operations of the Russian army in the Russo-турецкой war of 1877-1878 created on personal impressions of the artist from travel to the theater of operations. The image of a railway passing along the banks of the river, gave the expert the opportunity to assume that "most likely, the author portrayed a segment Bender-Галацкой railway, built during the Russo-турецкой war (1877) for the smooth movement of Russian troops, the transport of provisions, ammunition, horses, and forage. Bender-Галацкая railway with a length of 303 km was constructed in a record time — 100 days (from-за heavy rains during this period was only 58 full-time jobs (source: old.nasledie.ru). — AI.). In 1878 at the world exhibition in Paris project and Executive album Bender-Галацкой Railways received the first prize-при and a gold medal for speed of construction.

Boris Nikolaevich Yakovlev, the author of a small and strikingly beautiful cardboard "Autumn day" (1938), one of the greatest masters of the Soviet landscape painting, is considered the follower and successor of the creative method of A. K. Savrasov, V. D. Polenov, I. I. Levitan. It is believed that most fully realized his creative work in 1920-30-х years (source: art-100.ru), the time of creation of our work. Yakovlev is better known today as the founder of the Soviet industrial landscape, but it is possible that chamber landscapes 1930-х years, in the tradition of "Union of Russian artists", brought to life this assessment of the great landscape artist S. V. Gerasimov: "only a Great artist could write. Just will not consider — will see later" (source: art-100.ru). Try and this wonderful work.

the Road to momentary impressions on a trip to India in 1954, is inspired by watercolor "On the way to Hyderabad" (1954) Alexander Mikhailovich Gerasimov, academician, President of Academy of the USSR. The expert draws our attention to a special place watercolors in the artist's works: "In contrast to his formal paintings in watercolors it's surprisingly free. His stuff, watercolour, virtuoso, light, airy, colorful, impressionistic. A. M. Gerasimov interested in sophisticated and bold color relationships, play and interaction vivid colours".

Completes the landscape section gouache contemporary artist Lucy Raven "Temple of the Sign icon of the Mother of God for Peter's gate, Moscow" (2004) —образ miraculously preserved Moscow churches of the XVII century.

the Three works are in the catalog of the genre of still life.

a Rather complex color palette that distinguishes "still life with Dymkovo toys" (1959) famous Soviet painter of Nicholas Roerich Gorlov.

Not laconic dated in the colour relation, practically two-color, red-белый "still life with chair" Nikolai Mikhailovich Rotanova.

Gentle, sensual and very beautiful gouache "untitled (Three flowers and an Apple)" (1973) of the sixties Vladimir Igorevich Yakovlev. Work and collection, and for the soul — with a recognizable motif, subtle color, inner purity, inherent in the works of the author.

In the genre section we have gathered 5 works — painting, original and printed graphics. They are all created by the sixties, with one exception. With him andlet's start.

1964 dated large gouache "pan and the nymph" a great Soviet graphics and book Illustrator Mikhail Rudakov Zakharievich. In this period, the artist cooperates with several book publishers, illustrates the poetry and prose of classical and modern authors — in particular, Francois Villon, Alexander Blok. We can assume that our gouache created as an illustration of scenes from Greek myth to draw one of their books.

Printed graphics seriously and successfully engaged many artists of the second Russian avant-garde, however, and among them were real virtuosos. Print 1972 "Fowler" made just such a master of etching, Vyacheslav V. Kalinin.

Lightweight, air-filled lithograph "Long leg" Victor D. Pivovarov is recognizable and important to the artist as soon as it was placed on the frontispiece of the book "Viktor Pivovarov. Agent in love" (M.: New literary review, 2001).

As usual, intricate and multi-figure composition "Nude in the interior" (1993) of Natta Ivanovna Konysheva. The artist carefully writes elegant interior details, and colorful, textured character of surrounds other characters by assigning each one its own role in the composition and giving to them is required for this role the entourage.

In 2009, in Paris, has written a large canvas Oscar Yakovlevich Rabin "Dolls in the village." In a well-known, "Rabin's" rural landscape, the artist has placed such distinctive characters that it is impossible to put the picture of the section of landscapes with staffage — is, of course, the genre work.

Theatre schedule in the catalog is a sketch of the costume of the eponymous Boris Godunov Opera by M. P. Mussorgsky (1939) the work of the great artist of the Leningrad theatre Nikolai Alekseevich Usine. Judging by the names of the performers, bass and baritone, listed in the figure, the sketch was done for the production at the Sverdlovsk theater of Opera and ballet. A. V. Lunacharskogo, premiered on 19 April 1939. A sketch of the elaborated and sumptuous Royal dress, trimmed with pearls and gold embroidery, delights in-depth knowledge of the artist of costumes of the XVI–XVII centuries, the author's imagination and skill.

it Remains to mention two works.

In 2015, performed the song "Circle" Sergei Mikhailovich Bordachev — perhaps an allusion to one part of the famous triptych by Kazimir Malevich, consisting of three black pieces — of the cross, square and circle — on a white background. Using the same geometric shapes, Bordachev, on the one hand, strengthen the conciseness of artistic expression, limiting yourself to one color for shapes and background@the semicolon on the other hand, the color of this — red, and the figure is changed in the proportions and differently offset from the center of the composition.

we Finish our story another top-лотом. "Song No. 9" (1999) Vladimir Nikolaevich Nemukhin is dedicated to the artist and the eldest friend of the author Vladimir Semenovich Chernetsov (1907-1969). "ironically, — said the expert, — this abstract composition is resolved in a bright and exquisite color style (apparently, the color palette is inspired by the works Chernetsov) and similar to rather abstract things Nemukhin the late 1950-х — early 1960-х years than in the works 1990-х years. Inthis composition is visible to the dedication, continuity and respect V. N. Nemukhin to the art of the Russian avant-garde 1910-20-х years, his ability to skillfully use their beautiful legacy in his works".
