K.Gorbatov, "Old Town"
 

Lord, please take a look.

Painting, oil on canvas, size 54h82.
(Old Town)

Signed lower left.

Thanks in advance for each opinion.

Signature (her mark in PM) "knocked out" of the paint layer pattern.
May have used an old canvas.

Do examination, preferably two <! - ~ 1 ~ ->.

redbor, the very method of applying brush strokes, sadly, handicraft, leaves, in my opinion, no doubt, that it can not be CG.

specifically, the sub-frame and canvas without a doubt "too old" for Gorbatova expressly + /- 1880

Funny, could it be reflected in the water and the house church <! - ~ 6 ~ ->.

Yes, it can , according to the perspective and foreshortening . Vanishing point located approximately in the middle . From this true reflection of the somewhat arbitrary , but it can be such an artistic technique - a generalization that there is no fragmentation in the picture.

And the distance the church from the shore you're comfortable with?

And , you know , the black backdrop of the canvas always inspires suspicion.
Why the fuck should it black?
And by the way , why the canvas in 1880 ?
He also blackened specifically for the " aging " , saw dozens of canvases.
And all the time wondered to whom it is intended ?
What canvas for 100 years will turn black ?
Nothing happens to him : lies , fit as a fiddle .

redbor, that's probably one of the prototypes of your picture . This Gorbatov 1919 , cardboard /oil 49H62 from the collection of the brothers Rzhevsky (St. Petersburg) (as of 1993 ) .

The left part of the picture , at least , very similar. Just over Gorbatov Rzhevsky is not art , and some " whipped cream" ( IMHO)

It's funny that even though this " Gorbatov " as a whole is made worse discussed in this topic, especially lettering in the signature 're trying to observe more carefully <! - ~ 1 ~ ->

There is, in my opinion, quite a bad signature.
