And it is better to take pictures and these pictures show.

The artist is a good artist. First you need to show her art and to consult about its restoration...

Very beautiful work.

Completely with You Klasen.

Good time.
That's the real painting. Pleases. Didn't like that.
How would resonates with the work of centuries Vereshchagin. I would venture to make such a comparison.
With HC.

A good picture. Large and painting professional.
Right at the entrance of the mosque was painted artist?

Most likely from the study. Strangely, this level of painting and no signature.

... and format - 125x125, really weird.

I have this thought was the first. In the early 20th century Samarkand, Bukhara and Ferghana were very popular among many Russian artists. We must not forget that during the war many intellectuals were in these parts in the evacuation. If you go in that direction, which I would have thought so. Judging by the large canvas, the artist was very wealthy or have access to the materials. Search would be on the list evacuated artists and theatrical artists.

The thing is, I think, not the Soviet times or even Western author.

It is hard to say. Before the war were still alive artists of the old school that knew how to draw. The format for the Russian work a little unusual, I agree. Abiotic would show and the frame.

There were, of course. The same bore, Benkov, Nikolaev (Usto Mumin), but it is unlikely they would in the post-revolutionary Turkestan to create a composition with praying dervish. in Uzbekistan, and not their style at work.

Can be Yudin Sergei Petrovich (1858 - 1923)?
