Do not it.

I looked at the portraits albome.Sravnil.Otlichie est.Ne Could you summarize your arguments, so I could compare with her. The fact that a couple of times offered Zvereva, but did not buy because of ignorance of the material.
I and others would be interested in a reasoned opinion of the person who knows the material.

[spigo]

My doubts: sluggish and uncertain scratching in the bottom right side of the picture, the signature (especially the letter "Z"), the abundance of bad fit of flowers is particularly evident in the signature, although agree that the picture looks good.

In the present study a portrait of himself merges with the background and to some extent, even the background dominates. This is not typical of other portrait painting and makes the plane, uproschaet.V other subtleties I'll pass.
Generally works Zvereva in the market is set, meaning that the acquisition is lost.

The market lot "psevdoZvereva, falshakov.

Perhaps even very likely, but all the vendors to assure authenticity, using the fact that the license-qualified experts in a full prostration, and at the mention of Zverevo only harassed golovami.V here Gelos, he simply wrote "for signature" and the business then.
I like this work and to assert categorically "not he," my opinion is too bold.

after all the sellers to assure authenticity, using the fact that the license-certified experts in a full prostration, and at the mention of Zverevo just shakes his head.

Is a force Valery S., Senior Researcher of the State Tretyakov Gallery, the artist-restorer charts of the twentieth century, an expert on Rosokhrankultura museum values.
He is not at the mention Zvereva shakes "in the prostration of his head."

Here is his interesting text about the portraits Anatoly Ivanovich, by the way:

I think it is no exaggeration to call Anatoly Zverev's largest portraitist of the twentieth century, as the scale of talent, and the huge number of portraits created. Unfortunately, somehow systematize his artistic heritage, to calculate the total number of works created by them to date is not possible, but if such fails, you can almost say for sure that the number of portraits created by Zvereva were put to in the Book Guinness World Records "! Where there is an official portrait painters like Shilov and Glazunov - such a demand and fecundity of them just never dreamed of! After the creation of Zverev's portrait in pencil, ink or watercolor took a few minutes, and wish to have his work were thousands! Not accidentally, the beast was joking about himself: "I was a painter until 1960, and after ... became a folk artist!". And this is not an exaggeration. Of course, the cunning little maestro: his art, absorbed the innovations of the avant-garde artists of the twentieth century, a rethinking of its own and become completely self was not available to ordinary Soviet man in the street, for many of his works remained "daubs" and, of course, he did not wear "honorary" title "national artist". But poets, writers, artists, musicians, staff of foreign missions in Moscow - all sought to have around the house portrait, painted Zverev. In Moscow, there was almost no "cultural" home, where it had not hung Zverev portraits.

   Writing portrait Zverev transformed into the present hepening. Narrowing his eyes, concentrating on a few minutes of their attention on the model, armed with a pencil brush, or simply a tube of paint, and, suddenly, unexpectedly, with a cry of "Foya" ( "fire"), the artist threw himself on the canvas or paper, and a few minutes energetically conjured, splashing around a paint, joking and holding the jokes in the process. Portrayed relaxed, trusting master, and he suddenly, quite unexpectedly, "brutal" a voice yelled: "Smile!" Model trembling, frightened, and immediately her face blurred in a smile. The artist made the last stroke of paint and sign it - all work is finished!

    Unfortunately, this popularity and demand affects performance Anatoly Zverev. Very often, especially in the seventies and eighties, the artist was doing, even beautiful, but frankly weak things. He even appeared a kind of canon to create female characters: some slight head tilt to the left, big eyes, with big fluffy eyelashes, elongated neck. This portrait was always sure to like depicting a lady, and certainly liked her. How he succeeded, remains a mystery.

   In later works often lacked the most important thing that should be in the portrait - psychology, the desire to understand the artist's inner world portrayed, bring it to the viewer. But for many it was not necessary: it was important to have a job very Zvereva. This does not mean that in this period, Anatoly Zverev was not successful portraits. Rather, stunning portraits of OM Aseeva and their own self-portraits that stand out and require a special exhibition and research, and portraits of the artist's friend Vladimir Nemukhin, Pauline Lobachevsky director Vulfovich and others, very close Zverev people always performed at the highest level. In general, the quality of work you can tell, like a beast belonged to their employers. Most low-quality things are in the hands of those who are stingy, even in the paint, giving Zverev two or three tubes. Written just two or three colors, these portraits, as a rule, careless, hasty in writing, and not expressive, as it should be and superficial. In them there is no beauty, nor psychology, which are always present in the tiny pencil sketches with Access. But this is about sad. The main point is that encounter with the true art of Anatoly Zverev always happy, always a holiday! The tireless inventor, magician of colors Zverev gifts to people their masterpieces. Fine, that his work is available true connoisseurs, and pictures carefully collected and exhibited in major museums and galleries.
