The Brooklyn Museum is selling a picture of Vereshchagin

Brooklyn Museum of Fine Arts in New York put up for sale a unique canvas Vasily Vereshchagin "Crucifixion by the Romans." Search for a picture of the new owner will help the auction house Christie's. Bidding is scheduled for November 28.

The collection of the Brooklyn Museum canvas Vereshchagin fell by John W. Brown, who acquired it in 1891. Since then, the picture is no longer available for auction. At first, Brown passed a masterpiece of Russian artist of the XIX century the Brooklyn Museum for temporary use, but after the death of his wife collectors finally gave it a historical collection. However, great care is not used the picture, resulting in a New York museum decided to sell it. "After a considered discussion of the museum management has concluded that Vasily Vereshchagin painting" Crucifixion by the Romans, "released a few samples of the total body of Russian art in the late XIX - early XX century, represented in our collection is mainly of representatives of the works of Russian modernism and the avant-garde "- says a representative of the Brooklyn Museum -" Undoubtedly, this work deserves a much richer history of exposure, whereas in our museum, it was last exhibited in 1932. "

Painting "Crucifixion by the Romans" has been created by the artist in 1887 during his stay in Paris. It is part of the trilogy dedicated to the extremes of the death penalty in the Roman, British and Russian empires. As part of the trilogy, there were also pictures of "Blasting the cannons of British India" and "Hanging in Russia." "Crucifixion by the Romans," distinguished by its compositional solution. Vereshchagin depicted in the painting the figure of Christ crucified is not in the central part of the canvas, and at the right edge of the blade, which contradicted the prevailing earlier tradition. Thus, the composition became a key target crowd.

According to preliminary estimates, the cost of fabric is £ 1,000,000-1,500,000. Proceeds from the sale of paintings will fill the trust fund for the purchase of new works the Brooklyn Museum.
