Oranienbaum help identify the author and can be called!
 

There's a picture of the house, none of the household does not know the author and title, can anyone has information on the forum?

presumably lost from the museum in Oranienbaum

I personally do not understand even a century: whether late Baroque of the 18th, or the eclectic second half of the 19th.


The pose - almost like a "Widow" Fedotov.


At least this is what that kind of material?

Passed!

Tatysha, carefully review the traffic pattern.
And if you find there: inventories, stickers, stamps, marks or inscriptions, relating to the period of the museum store pictures - immediately give up <! - ~ 7 ~ ->!
(Katz advised to give up ...)

Frame is good, the canvas needs restoration, photo sohranyuka

If without the inherent nasty ernichestva me - a pretty picture . This is evident even laid your photos. (Please : take a photo , please do not phone and decent camera. Picture deserves to spend on it a little more effort and time).
The website of the Ministry of Culture has a page " Cultural values ​​- the victims of war ". There - a list of things lost , including those of the palaces and museums. Unfortunately, photos are available on most products , but to look right.
And check back on the inventory numbers. In this case you should be aware that if the family legend is true - to inform the Oranienbaum you will be required . By the way, when an inv of the museum . № ( or stripped of traces ), you can send photos directly to the Oranienbaum ...
Good luck!

Sincerely, dabbler.

Amateur, unfortunately I did not photograph the number of failed, bore a picture of his time in the Hermitage, and there packed . Grandmother to any does not want to unpack it, but from memory said that at the very front of the frame to have the number 74 written in black with something thinly . behind the white square paper pasted on it and about the size of two and a half cm Number 213 ( maybe 215).
PS The Hermitage was told that the picture is similar to the work of Fedotov , but apart from him was another 8 masters, who wrote in the same style , ie, maybe she was painted by one of them . Who are these 8 people are not told.
