Moscow: Avatar, 2015. sewn pb. Identifying sitters, ascertaining and revising attributions, tracing museum acquisitions in the genre of portraiture are among the scholarly goals of this edition, the fourth in a series. Articles range over iconographic and art-historical themes such as provenance as a means of attribution, individual private collections, artists from Western Europe working in Russia, and specific works of portraiture. This book is as much about attribution and the subject-matter of painting as it is about specific works of Russian art. Articles on attribution precede the section of plates, which comprises several kinds of portraiture: customary painted or drawn portraits, caricatures, and portrait miniatures. 259 p., 27 cm, approx. 300 color illus, Rus.
