Validating suggest history

[Sandro]

Dear Sirs,
Discussion stickers and nadstavok in the works of artists in the theme "Otroshchenko", led me to the idea appeal to you to. Maybe who knows history, or tries to assume - why we have now in this form. Canvas slashed, and then assembled (glued) on plywood by the artist himself (as hereinafter prescribed loss and the signature on the back of plywood). The painting was preobretena the widow of the artist and stamped in the whole re-lit in this way.

The simplest explanation, it happens, something the author did not like his job, and maybe not in the mood was, perhaps envious, or to spite someone slashed canvas, and then the artist restores it.
And who's the author?

The picture is data.

Sandro, is difficult to say exactly, but it is one of the Muslim shrines in Uzbekistan, where, as a rule, buried very revered in the Islamic world of the saints, but kommunyaki all destroyed in the 20-40-gg. May and now izrezali.V Russia has thousands of icons burned at this time ..

Our version is as follows: Samokhvalov wrote this sketch during a joint visit to Central Asia in 1921. with their teacher Petrov-Vodkin (he has a picture from the same point, now in the Russian Museum). Samokhvalov was under strong pressure from the genius of their teacher, as mentioned in the diaries or letters (must specify), while he still has not found himself in painting. After this trip he fell ill with malaria, which has strengthened dipressiyu - and perhaps then he cut the picture, either during the illness, whether in anger that he should not write as he wants, but using the principle of "spherical perspective" .

either in anger at something,

It is quite possible version. (If the picture was from the outset in the family.)

I agree, the other versions and can not be if the picture at all times been in the family, not such a rarity and when the artist himself to destroy their work because they were dissatisfied.
