CRIMEAN LANDSCAPE WITH A SEASHORE AND CYPRESSES RUSSIA, 1920s–1930s

CRIMEAN LANDSCAPE WITH A SEASHORE AND CYPRESSES RUSSIA, 1920s–1930s

A refined Crimean landscape capturing the atmosphere of the southern coast on a clear summer day. The composition is structured around a gentle diagonal movement of the rocky shoreline, harmoniously balanced by the vertical accents of slender cypresses and the calm horizontal expanse of the sea. In the middle ground, a small house with a green roof is organically integrated into the natural setting, serving as both a compositional and chromatic focal point. In the distance, a panorama of mountain ranges unfolds in cool bluish-violet tones, dissolved within a luminous atmospheric perspective.Executed in a plein-air manner characteristic of Russian painting of the first third of the twentieth century, the work employs a free and confident brushstroke that avoids detailed delineation in favor of conveying the overall state of nature and the interplay of light, air, and space. The color scheme is built upon a subtle balance between the cool tones of the sea and mountains and the sun-bleached yellow-white and ochre hues of the coastal rocks, evoking the sensation of intense southern sunlight. The painting is marked by restrained harmony and a lyrical mood, free from decorative artifice or excessive expressiveness.By its painterly language, chromatic sensitivity, and overall atmosphere, the work relates to the tradition of Russian Impressionism and to the circle of professional artists active in Crimea during the 1920s–1930s, who continued the development of plein-air painting beyond academic and ideologically driven frameworks.Dimensions: 34 × 28 cm (visible); 48 × 43 cm (framed).Medium: Oil on canvas.Condition: Good. The canvas has been relined; the paint layer is stable, with minor signs of age.Provenance: Private collection.

Unique mantel clock, made of glass and bronze. Royal Russia. Early 19th century.

Unique mantel clock, made of glass and bronze. Royal Russia. Early 19th century.

A unique mantel clock made of glass and bronze made during the period of Nicholas I (1825-1855) in the style of the late Empire. The solar theme of the luminary rising from the waters is associated with the nature of abundance in the ornament of the dial and the dominant flowerpot on conical glass. The general leitmotif of the mobility of waves and time , permeates the work and is noticeable in the rhythm of the glass and the dial pattern. In the center of the composition, He and She are Helios’ assistants. Alpha and Omega of the universe. They rise from the waves and hold the luminary, affirming love, life, fertility. This is the connecting thread of times. The clock is made of gilded and polished bronze and cobalt glass, presumably made at the Imperial Glass Factory in St. Petersburg, with bronze bases of floral designs. The upper part of the clock is made in the shape of a vase and is decorated with gilded bronze floral decoration. The dial is marked with Roman numerals, decorated with a decor in the form of sun rays rotated in an hour circle. Literature: Sychev Igor. Russian lamps from the era of classicism. 1760-1830. M.
