Subject matter in the hands of " split" because he was interested in the subject, but not a combination of brands " converge " , and the level of work is not one.

I also have a question for lots 223-224, although there is a reference to the book.

Do not like the quality of the engraving and calligraphy letters, which, I suppose, in the original should be composed of six letters (where one letter is doubled).

Yu.E.Osmolovsky "It is particularly fond of the artist motley, clumsy , sloppy Torzhok . He found a peculiar charm in its architectural disorganization, gave the city a kind of zhivopisnost.Pravda , some features of the master's works appear imitation of the popular toy and exterior decoration, reduces the credibility of the product life (eg " Troika in Uglich ," 1913). M. Soviet Artist , 1982
  In all probability there was a view "Troika" of the Russian Museum , but sold "popular toys " even more. How to find a guru? Time passes , and the average work is a masterpiece ?
