Description
Richard Karlovitch Zommer,
Russian 1866-1939-
Travellers stopping for tea amongst the Caucasus Mountains;
oil on canvas, signed in Cyrillic 'R. Zommer.' (lower right), 30.2 x 61 cm.
Provenance:
Private Collection, UK.
Note:
The present work is characteristic of Zommer's vibrant scenes, which often depict the landscape and inhabitants of the Caucasus Mountains, which he visited extensively. Zommer was a central figure in the development of late 19th and early 20th century Georgian painting, and in turn heavily influenced his pupil Lado Gudiashvili (1896-1980).
We are grateful to James Butterwick for confirming the authenticity of the present lot.
