Description
MARK WEINSTEIN (1894–1952) Scene outside a house signed in Cyrillic and dated ‘Weistein 1946’ (bottom right) oil on canvas Mark Grigorievich Weinstein (1894–1952) was a Soviet painter, illustrator and art teacher. Born in Konotop, in the Chernihiv Governorate, he graduated from the Kiev School of Art in 1918. In the 1920s, he worked in the museum sector and contributed to the development of the Chernihiv Historical Museum. In the early 1930s, he headed the restoration workshops at the Kiev Caves Lavra before moving to Moscow in 1934, where he taught painting and became a member of the Moscow Union of Artists. During the rest of his career, Weinstein produced landscapes and genre paintings, as well as a series of watercolours inspired by the literary works of Nikolai Gogol, Anton Chekhov, Alexander Pushkin and Mikhail Saltykov-Shchedrin. His first solo exhibition was organised posthumously in 1994. At the buyer’s request, we would be happy to provide a general report on the condition of the lot described above.
