Date and place of birth of the artist:
1863, Nikolaev/Russia
Died in Munich in 1927.
It portrays an elegant standing man. Stylistically very close to the portrait of Ludwig III of Bavaria from 1913, which has been in the collection of the Bavarian museum since the 1930s.
Almost life-size, with a dark suit, waistcoat, white shirt and tie on which a flower-shaped brooch with three diamond dots shines.
Painting that combines the sober language played on a few colors and a lively impressionist interpretation on the hands and face.
A painting of great elegance and pictorial quality.
In good condition.
