Painting M. Malyshev (fingerprinting) 1897.72 х93, oil on canvas.

Can anyone familiar with the work of artist Michael Malyshev Georgievich 1852-1912?

Could this painting be his hand or is falshak?
If you do not copy, what possible price in the auction sales of his little stories?

With respect and reverence!

Malyshev Mikhail Ye (G.) (1852-1913) - painter and graphic artist. Genre painter, battle scenes, historical painter and illustrator. Born in St. Petersburg., In the years 1871-76. studied at the Academy of Arts. During the Russian-Turkish war of 1877-78. with the writer V. Garshins was as a volunteer in the army in the Balkans. Since the early 1880's exhibitor of many exhibitions, including AH, TPHV, St. Petersburg. Society of Artists. In 1913 the Academy of Arts was set up personal exhibition of works by the artist. The works are in several museums in Russia, including GTG.
This picture probably belongs to a series of Balkan artist.

Right. If this is really MG Malyshev, this work belongs to a series of his Balkan works written during the Russian-Turkish war. One of these paintings Malysheva - "In Bulgaria. An episode from the Russian-Turkish war of 1877-78, acquired P. Tretyakov for collection in his gallery.

The database is only one record of the appearance of Malyshev's work at auction. His painting "In the antique shop, was sold in 1998 at Sotheby's. Estimate 10000-15000 pounds. No bidding results.
True, this work or not - to judge by the photo difficult. In my opinion too kalligrafichno derived signature. The handbook is a specimen signature Solovieva Malysheva 1879. It differs from the signature on your picture, although very, very similar. Voobshchem need an expert to view the picture "alive":)

MurariArt, the signature is very similar. But ask about provenance. I think that in respect of this work it will be better examination.

Provenance not particularly what:
Painting in 1981-83gg. was bought from a collector from Riga (both came to Riga I do not know), but then was brought to Kaunas, has since been uninterruptedly in the collection and never thought to sell:)

MurariArt, not prompt, the signature on the "wet"?

Databases complete confusion.
in 1998 with the estimate: 10000-15000 pounds Sotheby's as the work of Mikhail Malyshev Yegorovich (1852-1913) is not sold.
in 2004, estimate: 10000-15000 pounds at Christie's as the work of Nikolai Malyshev Tarasovich (1851 -?) is not sold.
in 2007, estimate: 6000-8000 pounds at Christie's as the work of Nikolai Malyshev Tarasovich (1851 -?) is not sold.

But work alone:

The wonderful thing is strange that did not go away.

Here are just a picture of its kind in the Sotheby's and Christie's and usually do not go.
Estimated at 5-7 thousand pounds, but do not go.

A sad too, but this simple rich collectors do not like, "subsistence".

Then the frame should be from Chanel. :)
