Sale: [L10115] PART II OVERVIEW Sotheby's Russian Paintings Part II sale draws together a wide selection of oils and works on paper from the 18th century to the present day. Amongst the earliest compositions featured is a rare oil by Jean-Baptiste Le Prince inspired by his travels in Siberia and a set of twenty hand-coloured lithographic views of Moscow and St Petersburg after Karl Beggrov. The work of Russian artists travelling to the far east is also represented in the sale by Konstantin Makovsky's In the Classroom.

The auction also features several Himalayan landscapes by Nikolai Roerich and the non-conformist and contemporary art movements are represented by the work of Dmitri Krasnopevstev, Oleg Tselkov, Semyon Faibisovich and Vladimir Kupriyanov. 120 PAGES. 172 LOTS.
