Продам: Selling landscape by Konstantin Somov

[khmelev]

a standard contract for the provision of consulting services prescribed deadlines. Three months if I remember correctly .
Citizen is produced unpretentious conclusion with careful avoidance of specific language and links to the similarity of handwriting - without the right of handwriting expertise to 9 months.
To ask the question - why so long?
The answer - more personal.
What is strange that such a disposition is puzzling ?

I put additional photo of the painting to clear your doubts :

Personally, I have no doubt after these photos only increased ( before I kind of cheated distrust the bad photos). Very sloppy , carelessly executed watercolor , while Somov extremely attentive to his work and was a harsh critic of myself . Further , the landscape is made in 1902 ! After the " Ladies in Blue" ! In general, it is unclear why he was leaving " alive " this work. Neither the color scheme , nor the composition really ... Perhaps the work of burnt due to careless attitude, but even this does not explain is slipshod drawing ... And the trees do not look like Somovskaya . He trunks and branches throughout the life portrayed by one , very characteristic, and then some logging ...

Perhaps the investigation referred back of the collections will clarify something , but so far I personally tend to side with the experts ... The work is very questionable . To uniquely her attributirovat , needed iron proof.

You do, of course, I'm sorry, but this assumes that you have solicited a bribe for accelerated production expertise or something like that?
If so, that fact is undeniable public importance and you better not be silent about it, and tell in detail.

Among other places .... was in the Department of scientific expertise GRC them . Academician IE Grabar . Qualifications of experts of this office is very low and they have no original work of art to make a qualitative assessment , and in TG for this purpose they are no longer allowed.

Hmmm ...

I asked why . Not so long ago, this kind of paper called my friend some doubts. And he sent - face being quite formal - formal request for some moments the leadership of the museum. Elim management responded that the paper has " no official significance." That is, it's kind of securities in circulation in a given environment .
  If you are interested, I can look for you to sample examination Museum, where it is very beautifully described why - ATTENTION - we can not exclude the authorship Somov.
What does this mean ? Only one thing - that someone really wanted in any way to pull a big name in dadneyshem to somehow manipulate the thing on the market. Sadly it all ...

The author's name this " Evening" , as of 1918 she was in a meeting in Moscow V.A.Haritonenko ( In the book, Sergei Ernst Konstantin Somov Community Edition Sv.Evgeniya 1918 page 96 have this information) . On the reverse side there is an inscription made by KA Somov : Pastel : val unto Martyshkino vecherom .... I put the photo of the inscription , see :

So "Evening" or " Shaft Martyshkino night "? This is a different name , you see, and can be quite different picture. Sorry, I'm so meticulous , but I'm interested in Somov , hence my overbearing . In addition , there is no one you do not want to hunt . Just " artinvestment " very imposing an obligation on the resource. Here you need to be prepared to answer , because there are very experienced people there . At the same auction is much less ask questions ... And then just run across seekers of justice (note , no quotation marks are not worth it, because these people are , as a rule, real experts , and genuinely interested in the subject of discussion) .

And then just run across seekers of justice

And their "pernicious ... raid

Almost from Pskov to Onega

Fields and villages conquered,

It was terrible to all neighbors:

In front of him were shaking Petchenegs "...


The horror!

One may argue about the authorship, but rather on the quality of the work.
And it is such a level that will sell the same amount of time, and sell it?

[Игорь Гурьев]

Pictures from left horns and legs - and it shows in the same triangular watercolor brushstrokes that were to be the basis for Christmas trees.
Only here the whole pastel then crumbled.

In general, even if it Somov (which is likely), then the thing is not much superior in value to a detailed autograph.
