Hugo Ungewitter
 

My friend, one of the rank-leader! :) local Cossack troops :) (I can not write without ulyki) prdlozhili picture with the Cossacks. He was looking for a format, with the Cossacks, etc.
But he did not know about the author and actually asked to see and ask. But what I have already asked him what to ask for?
Well, that and how, the money is not small yet asked.
That show, I ask:

Author-a Ungevitter Hugo (Hugo Ungewitter) "Cossack attack (or attack of the Cossacks? Or Kazachya lava"), 1919, s /m, 100h145.

A picture for an illustration of "Quiet Flows the Don".
In general, this Hugo what has to Russia, he was a Russian artist? Signed Latin, actually.

I question the price too interesting.
Judging from the news websites in 2004 - 2005 GG prices for his work with pro-Russian subjects and a similar amount reached $ 30.000.
Here are a couple of works, for example:

This German artist,

But I was not just a matter of interest. I do not have to, I did not ask. And he did not speak. Night call and find out, I'll tell you.

I found about him, that he was a German painter depicted the war scenes, animals, hunting scenes (1869-1944), but not much ...

This information is not 100%.
According to the stories I know that Ungevitter wrote his hunting scenes on the estate Ascania Nova, in the Kherson region. At one time this estate belonged to the Barons Pfalz Fein. Now there is reserved steppe.
You can enter the site Eduard Pfalz Fein, who lives in Liechtenstein. And try to write him a letter.
Maybe he knows something of the stories of their ancestors.
I do not know whether he was alive still. After all, in very old age people.

A good artist. At least in the depiction of the Russian stage it can not be compared with the Baumgartner-Stoilova, Sheloumovym and others. Here's the latest list ekspetizy on his picture. Here and there a little biography of the artist:

Yes that's what I know.
It was before the revolution, the famous breeder of Russian wolfhounds. In the early twentieth century. the breed has existed generic differences; dogs were called by the names of owners or the location of the Kennels; Pershino (hunting Prince Nikolai N. Romanov, Sr.), ozerovskie, boldyrevskie, chelischevskie, sumarokovskie, geerovskie, Gatchina (royal hunting), etc. That result of breeding work and was established breed Borzoi ( Russian Wolfhound, Psowaya Barsaya ), which received worldwide recognition.
Outside of his all know, he was engaged in South Russian ( a mixture of English and the Christian, so I tried to explain, they are called Krymky or krymachi ) and all dog lovers casually mentions: "His hobbies are art, drawing dogs and horses." about him on borzyatnicheskih forums only as a breeder remember.
And the date of death, by the way, often after figures "44" is "?".
