Who can this be?
 

That brought me yesterday, now, with pretensions to Makovsky.
Unfortunately Makovsky in it I saw.
A closer look saw that the painting was cut earlier. The edges of the canvas with a picturesque bed wrapped in a frame. Only the lower part of the canvas seems nadstavlena as duplicate edges.
What will the distinguished audience?

The first thing that catches your eye - head the charge of the torso. Appearance clearly today. This is a collage. A picture-printing.
Printing on canvas - a special genre of fine art, which emerged recently. Combining artistic techniques of photography and painting, printing on canvas - their promising sequel, which provides food for the creative imagination of artists.

This style of art great opportunity: you can recreate the reproduction of your favorite pictures, stylized photograph for painting or to make the original collage.
How is it done
Fine art painting or photograph, we process on a computer, and then prepared a file is sent to the workshop. The image is applied to the canvas with pigment ink large-format roll printer. Then the canvas is stretched on a frame and covered with lacquer art, which protects the image from light and moisture. Then our artist brush causes texture gel, giving the picture size and power of manual work.

VYACHESLAV, not sapient!
Normal oil painting on canvas. No press!

uriart, I also had the impression that these shoulders had had other head ... Do you think that the manner of the head and everything else - one arm? And the paint?

I was offered, here in Germany, the Russian work in a similar technique and similar age.
Delved into the archives, not found. : (
I showed it to Cyril, but I do not believe that she had survived.
As I was even signed.
I think the end of the 19 th, early 20 th century was the fashion and the demand for such possible like photographs, work.

Rubizhne thing to write with pictures

I glued the head does not seem to be. Makovsky I do not see. As for the press, sure, uriart easily distinguishes it from the oil: D

Looking through catalogs of art objects and antiques, are wanted Rosokhrankultura saw one job and remembered about this topic:
Makovsky, KE "Portrait of Nikolai and Felix Dukes
Yusupov and graphs Sumarokov-Elston, as a child. "
End of XIX century. Oil on wood, 59 x 75 cm lost during
hostilities.

Makovsky is hard to find, the way is completely different, "licked."

Perhaps this is a copy of any pictures, but maybe not.

Some of the many graduates of the Academy of Arts, late 19 - early 20 th century.
