    Dear colleagues

    What I like so much about Vereshchagin is that this painter introduced the (bloody) realism of the war into Russian painting - which the authorities did not particularly appreciate. He was therefore monitored by the secret police.

    The painter participated as volunteer in 1867 in the campaign of the Russian army against the Emir of Bukhara and was awarded for personal bravery
    at the defense of the city of Samarkand with the Saint George Cross.

    During the campaign he made many sketches about events and painted several pictures after his return - the so-called "Turkestan Series".
    One of them can be seen above and was the template für Sergey's nice vignette.

    Here three other ones...:

    Thanks for this info. And those paintings are beautiful. I'm really intrigued by this man's work. Do you have any idea of the size of his paintings, i.e. were they usually large canvases?

    The sizes of the pictures are different. This is the photo I shot at the exhibition. On the left is the painting "Defeated, Memorial Service," which Martin showed. This picture is from the Balkan series.

    Vasily was a great painter and you are one hell of a sculptor Sergey.In the past you have sculpted the two guards from Buhara(if I remember correctly) but so far I have not seen this vignette in any company catalog.Is it ever going to be comercially released?

    Oda, thanks for the high rating!
    Oda to the Bukhara guard heavy fate.:):) For commerce (fabrication), it is very laborious. Therefore, nobody took to the circulation. I wanted to give the artist to see his work in color. The artist was frightened and did not accept the gift. The result - the work in disassembled form is in a box. Waiting for his artist (as a gift);):)
