Opera cubo-futurist copy of the Russian avant-garde period. Oil Painting on thick card, cm. 44X64 dated 1924 and signed in Cyrillic (SH K?). With small traces of wear and tear.
A work of great effect, but also raises some doubts. From Germany, where it was purchased many years ago. And the fluorescent light, to which the work was submitted, it seems painting is not recent, and perhaps coeval with the period to which it relates.
What then is wrong?
That's too perfect. With the date, and with a composition that would reveal a great teacher if we could even make out the signature. A doubt supported by the many fakes in circulation. Or worse (because more difficult to detect) from the works produced by students to study German and Russian Academies in the '40s and '50s. Is there someone, an expert on Russian avant-garde, which can help us out?
