Today born Mikhail Vrubel
 

Today born Mikhail Vrubel! One of the most notable artists of the Russian school IMHO.
Perhaps someone that is, pictures are not as famous as these, it would be interesting to see different Vrubel!

I have somehow showed up here, but once again pleased to show his former work M. Vrubel "Flying Demon".

Copy. board \ canvas 1961

A little more Vrubel. Very much I love this artist.

MA Vrubel, "Pan"
 

and tell a story that happened to me three years ago
Browsing the Internet pre-auction information very seriously auction B & M in Bremen, Germany.
Look Graphics: MA Vrubel, "Pan", and no photo. Before the auction remained two days, the phone they are already there do not take - my mouth is full of worries.
Must go, look - the benefit is relatively far away. Here we are, we come, Guten Tag, where here you Vrubel?
Summing up to the glass display case .........
There is a sheet torn from a notebook into the cell, it is drawn in red pencil, "Pan", from the top in capital letters is written: Vrubel, Pan.
But I was struck down a postscript at the bottom: Masha Golovanov, Grade 3, 28 School, Moscow.
Well, as a joke - laughing all the way back.

The painful condition of the artist has taken a severe form of after shocks in connection with the death of infant son, a touching portrait of which he wrote in 1902.

Hidden signature Vrubel
 

In one of the numbers for 2008 magazine Antiques. Objects of art and collectibles. " was an interesting article about how the staff of the Historical Museum, along with forensic-pocherkvovedami to uncover the secrets hidden signatures Vrubel. Almost every work, the word "VRUBEL is located in the plot: the crown princess swan, the eyes of the lord, etc. And in the small plastic artist, too.
The article has photos and decoding cleverly cast away the letters.

That's what it turns out, our favorite mysterious Vrubel!:)

Add even a link to an interview with Ekho Moskvy on Vrubel and K `remarkable" Tretyakov "Ida Hoffman.
