Russian Painting.
Lydia Davidenkova.
An acclaimed artist of Contemporary Realism, Lydia
Davidenkova was born in Leningrad (today St. Petersburg) and received
her first lessons in painting at the studio of A. Eberling. She studied
in Special Art school and afterward, in the Repin Academy of Arts. She
became a professor at the Academy after graduating in 1966. She is a
member of the Russian Artist's Union and has participated in more than
100 Russian and International exhibitions in addition to 8 exhibitions
dedicated solely to her works. Lydia has placed works in private
collections throughout Europe and the USA.
Lydia Davidenkova's talents
are revealed in her portraits, landscapes and still-lifes. Her
landscapes contain delicate and refined color combinations mixed with a personal poetic
expression. Her portrait painting focuses on key representatives of
the arts and sciences, including many historical portraits. The
principal themes of her paintings are the man and town and her most complex
theme is that of time, in which she expresses the unseen season of love
and dream, and which she calls "the fifth season". Lydia Davidenkova
works primarily in St. Petersburg, but also works in Paris, London and
Monterey.
We take great pride in presenting
classically-trained contemporary artists from St. Petersburg, Russia. The
art below represents their journey since the time of
communism. The artists have gathered together paintings and have asked us to offer
them to the public. Some of these paintings may be
assessed as studies and others are executed to perfection. We are, however, aware
that some paintings need some work in restoration for the satisfaction
of the customer. We are more than willing to work towards correcting
these deficiencies. Should a purchaser have concerns, we have an
in-house restorer.
