The 17th century. oil on canvas 110h185. Landscape with mountains, water, castle, people and animals.

Everything that is spread, is not from some sites and auctions, and really is me. Just by nature I am not a researcher, and many things that just do not get a handle, I priskuchivayut and try to hide them out of sight so as not to spoil the mood.
Thus, this oryasina I immediately fell in love and I do not assign it its the only place where it's no one stumbles - the cupboard. And if not love, then consider it tended weak copy of the 18th century is not known where to ...
But guests who visited today literate friend said that thing definitely belongs to the 17th century, drawn by a very high quality, and the apparent ugliness of the castle - just a tribute to the style and in any case do not indicate a lack of skill of the artist.
And the presence of this very skill say the figures, landscapes, etc., and in general, if the thing is to clean the dreaded yellow lacquer, it will be a real beauty, at least - quite interior.

Only thing left to bind to a particular country, a particular time and in school, which I would have asked me here to help.

interesting perspective - especially wide angle, to use photographic terms


There is something fascinating in this ugly absurdities

Be sure to do tomorrow photo craquelure in daylight. Just an old "soap box " to do with a half- inch of perfect pictures, in the tenth year of life, had recently died , and the new is not yet so accustomed .
A photo turnover and so I usually do, but this is still present dubbing, looking quite modern frame that looks like a fairly pointed Ivan Petrov, 50 years.
But I think that the big reason for no doubt: if a thing is not authenticity , then - a clear " semnashka ." However, already feel that getting rid of things " vlegkuyu " still does not work and the final verdict will have to drag it to the Hermitage , so jump ahead to conclusions until I ...

I'm sorry, too late with the promised.

Something happened.
And craquelure visible and yellow paint and paper on the perimeter ...

Photographed about three-cm sections.

very cute craquelure

Long remembered where I had seen a similar attitude to the future.
The master Safronova!
And the prospect of crooked (vskidku vehicle more than three), people seem to be larger, and the buildings in particular.

Castle beautifully written.

If it is not a fake, then (although I am not a pro) picture dear
