Painting, signed "A. Harlamoff, 1869 Paris"
 

Hello.

I am an absolute beginner in the forum, and perhaps chose not the best part, however continue - recently, quite unexpectedly, I got a picture signed: A. Harlamoff, 1869 Paris (76.5 x 64 cm) with a view to its possible sale. (see scans)
After careful examination, using ultra-violet flashlight, I could not find anything suspicious, the signature is not lit, only traces of minor restoration.
I checked the date of arrival of Alexander Kharlamov in France - the middle of 1869, so-that it is quite possible that he could have written this work at the end of the year. Besides, I found his work "My grandmother and her granddaughter" in the collection of the Russian Museum, also dated 1869 and the year in my themes are similar and both works were written in the same style. (scan attached)

And now the questions:

What do you think, about this work?
Is there a real chance that this picture Kharlamova?
It is worth-I turn to the experts, and if so, to whom and where?
Can I sell this work in Russia or better to go to Christie's or Sotheby's?

Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

P.S. Of course a little premature to assess this picture, but perhaps at someone there is speculation about this?

I think-is.

Signed typical Kharlamov. Painting, too, although he has a face and posimpatichnee:) "live" to see ...

I came across information about the catalog-resonator AA Kharlamov. Here I found a small message, and, most importantly, the coordinates of the Saratov Museum. I do not know how you can call this edition of the directory-reason, but ask them might be worth having. Maybe this will help you. Good luck!

Write to lichnik, there are suggestions.

Hello.

I sent photos to Christie's and waiting for an answer. Perhaps work keep watch put up for auction this spring.
Do you have a suggestion? What?

Bye

Do not write about it in efire.Kartiny taken out of the country is forbidden, it is punishable by law and is zhestko.Nazyvaetsya kontrobanda.

And suppose that the picture of "where" you can?

Thank you for your help, work is really "there", that is, here in France, where I live.

ArtVital,
If you wish you can give now at Tajan. There Tatiana Barysheva deals in Russian art. I can give a recommendation.

Thanks for the info, I am also familiar with Tatiana, but unfortunately it is no longer engaged in painting. Now "Russian" auctions Tajan'e is selling books, silver, medals, theatrical costumes and scenery and other historical antiques - anything that can be tested, is 100 per cent. I think that they are no longer engaged in painting because of the large number of substandard work.

reviewed the entire directory, a very high probability that the film really belongs to the brush Kharlamov.
Incidentally, I have a couple of extra copies. If someone has to write. The book is very stoyuschaya and competent.

Hello, I just learned from the compiler directory Mr. Eckart Lingenauber, that my work was included in this edition. You have not seen this picture in the catalog? How many works of A. Kharlamov in the directory?

In any case, let me know пожайлуста left-Do you have copies of this book?

In any case, there is no sense to sell now in France, at Sotheby's and Christie's prices are significantly higher.

Hello vyadem!
With pleasure would buy catalog-reason Kharlamov.
