A typical example of the difficulty of determining the authenticity of the painting.
Influence of the French marine painters of his contemporaries AP Bogolyubov is such that his work is stylistically almost indistinguishable from the works of French artists correlated with the picturesque talent. He worked with the same colors and on the same canvas as the French.
To determine the authenticity remain only indirect signs.
I anyone has any thoughts?

ranzher, I have only one consideration.
Did not see a hierarchy of narrow vertical marin.
Small vertical is, but not so very narrow.

Indeed, the argument format is not in favor of the artist. It should be noted that the 38H18, 5 is not standard French format, which works for etyudnogo character used by Russian artists in France often.
Unless, of course, is not a piece of the picture, a larger format of which it is cut and stretched on a frame size.

Another consideration. On the lower right denotes the location of the landscape: HAVRE. French way to write is not allowed. Right LE HAVRE. Hard to believe that Bogolyubov, who has lived half his life in France, and who knew the French language might as well write.

A pro Deineko write "Attribué à Alexandre DEYNEKA", a little expensive for a picture with unconfirmed authoring ...

To say that this is bullshit I can not, but usually they are just so removed from myself or what otvetsvtennost.

A few more strokes to Lot 203.
If you look at the signature at the bottom of the left and the name of a place on the right, the obvious, that they are delivered as a clumsy, un-artistically, not to mention that the unnatural Signed in Cyrillic and Latin name.

In describing the origin of the lot stated that the current owner, he got as a result of successive transitions from a French private collection. Meanwhile, the painting was sold in 2004 at an auction in Marseilles and was sold for 10,000 euros. Provenance this lot did not exist, but it was sold with a certificate of a Gontar Sergey (Serguei M. Gontar).
Certificate SM Hontar was equipped with another picture in this auction: "Rest Soldier Villevalde, which certainly could say that it does not belong to this battle-painter's brush.

Another consideration. On the lower right denotes the location of the landscape: HAVRE. French way to write is not allowed. Right LE HAVRE. Hard to believe that Bogolyubov, who has lived half his life in France, and who knew the French language might as well write.

If you look in the Saratov Museum. Radishcheva, which collected the most significant amount proivedeny hierarchy, we can see that he never set "Le" before the name of places. And about the format of the statement is also controversial, there is such a format.

Цитата:

Сообщение от Alkalan (Сообщение 280846) Yes, and about the format too controversial assertion, there is such a format.

Alkalan, where? Name.
About ARTICLE "le"-agrees not set.
But if we're really talking about Saratov, then you should know that the inscriptions with the towns and places portrayed in the paintings, were placed at the pictures later transferred to the museum itself was written and is for buduyuschego Museum and the author's case.
This may explain the absence of the article is in the Saratov things.
Moreover, for example, the painting "Fire Boat" (1888, x /m, 33H46) is an inscription made by the author, "Radischev museum.

Ranzher rights. In the phrase Le Havre, "le" - not just articles (which is not placed before the names of cities - can not write, for example, "Le Strasbourg" or "Le Lyon"), a component of the city name.
