The work is very well known in the market, one of the best, besides all the characters (except for the skull cats ) known. One of the fishermen - Arkady Sternberg, the father of the artist Edward Sternberg, so I at least told people in the know.

Here, I think, would be appropriate memories of the B. Sveshnikov. Here's how they sound in the retelling Dmitry Plavinsky:
"Boris after some time he told me how he got into camp. Denounced by one of the students, he and his fellow artist Leo Kropiwnicki were arrested and exiled for some time together in one of the camps of Ukhta.
There, he was sent to the excessive burden the common work. He was only 19 years of age, physical health quickly exhausted, and he fell into the category of "goners" that is doomed.
Once the camp gates opened and the territory came with two vohrovtsev tall man in an officer's Astrakhan fur hat and wool coat to toe. The thieves opened his mouth. Sight in camp conditions beyond the limits of reality. It was Arkady Akimovich Steinberg. Arkady Akimovich for a couple of nights prepare for the exam at the doctor's assistant, and accurately guided to the camp situation, - he sat for the second time - found that the zone is a talented young artist, someone Sveshnikov, and asked him with drawings of his office.
Boris described the cabinet Schteynberga: a large desk piled high with watercolor paints, brushes, albums. To one side of the table - white cabinets with medicines and medical equipment. At the sound of log walls of beautiful color reproduction of Frans Hals, Italians, Vermeer of Delft.
Arkady Akimovich helped Sveshnikov go with the overall work in the night watchman of a shop. It was warm, and most importantly, no one bothered all night to draw and paint in oils. In this work, Boris remained until liberation.
Over the years, Sveshnikov made a large number of paintings and drawings. "So intently and carefully, you can work only in the camp," - he told me.
All works are gradually being sent to Moscow, his mother, cha ¬ hundred came to see Boria. "

COP, and in Tarusa Sveshnikov increasingly made light watercolor landscapes ...
