Karl Briullov iz chastnykh kollektsii Moskvy i Sankt-Peterburga (Carl Briullov from private collections of Moscow and St. Petersburg)
St. Petersburg: Rus muz, 2013. Sewn cl. This catalog of an exhibition at the Russia Museum makes accessible approximately 20 drawings and paintings by the greatest artist of the romantic period in Russia. The works have not previously been accessible to researchers. The study of these works from private collections, as the author contends, leads to insights about the artist’s technique and choice of subjects. Full-page illustrations followed by details bring out the strength of the work as a whole and the virtuosity of a painter attentive to minute details of posture, hair, complexion, and clothing. 111 p., 32 cm, approx. 120 color and b/w illus., Rus.
