I fully agree with A.P.Ostroumovoy-Lebedeva, but there is another view :..." known to us of this time Somov (1925-1939 (EA) indicates that the artist has not lost his talent and not exhausted their vozmozhnostey.Odnako his works became more prosaic skuchnee.Za abroad and his work has lost the most significant feature of the specific jokes, but tell him to sort of romance and poetry, the unique spicy aromat.Somov remains a good artist, but has ceased to be " Somov "..."

Understand, Eugene, on ideological assumptions that time the artist, who went abroad, could not take place on foreign soil. About these artists either did not want to know or do not know. I wonder how many works of foreign Luba period saw Irina Pruzhany? I think not many. Even if you saw hardly had the opportunity to be sincere in their judgments. I prefer to believe unbiased art critics, but his eyes and the people who witnessed the creative life of the Luba abroad. It is known that Konstantin throughout his life maintained a demanding and regretted the wasted held each day, although these days, I think he was not much, because artist left behind a huge musical legacy.
Eugene, I do not really understand how you can compare the two portraits, executed in different techniques. This portrait may not be the work of Luba, simply because there is no poetry. Pushkin wrote poems in different genres, but it's always Pushkin. Even when it was a squib. So always Somov Somov. Even when it is a portrait in three quarters.
