About the Item
Santorini Dawn is a lithograph on paper with an image size of 2.5 x 2 inches, inititaled 'LK' lower right and annotated lower left, framed in a gold-tone classic 'reed and ribbon' moulding. Numbered 158/295, from the edition of 325 (there were also 25 AP and 5 HC).
Since her childhood in Russia, Kondakova has been fascinated by traditional art and by a sense of spiritual transcendence. Her style is derived from her early work in egg tempera – the medium of medieval painters. Born in Russia, Kondakova immigrated to the United States in 1991. A graduate of the Grabar Center in Moscow, she also attended Russia’s School of the Sacred Arts, the Moscow Pedagogical Institute, and the Moscow Art Institute.
The ability to paint in the small format of her miniature paintings is no easy task, but Kondakova has clearly mastered it. Fascinated with the painted icons of the Russian Orthodox Church, she studied the discipline of professional icon painting at the Cathedral of St. Alexis in Moscow, where she began her career making miniature paintings. The attention to detail associated with that training manifests itself in these works, awaiting us in every intricately detailed nook and cranny. Even the smallest fragment of a large Kondakova painting may be seen as a complete work, thanks to the artist’s unusual ability to reveal details brilliantly through jewel-like colors, and with quite unusual luminosity.
Her miniature lithographs were created by the uncompromising printer, Art Estampe of Paris, who still uses the centuries old method of stone lithography. True to tradition, great pride was taken in the extensive participation of the artist in the entire printmaking process. Each lithograph was hand-pulled in an edition of 325 and initialed by the Kondakova.

Liudmila Kondakova
Liudmila Kondakova’s artworks are rich with clarity and light, reflecting in their extraordinary draftsmanship a sense of artistic and spiritual well-being. Her meticulous attention to detail allows us to become intimately involved in the life of her paintings, often depicting well-known streets and landmarks in Paris. In the artist’s words: “To me, these streets, with their worn cobblestones and aged buildings, evoke a sense of nostalgia and romance with a touch of melancholy. It is the ideal kind of space.” Since her childhood in Russia, Liudmila Kondakova has been fascinated by traditional art, and by a sense of spirituality that transcends common existence. Her painting technique follows the tradition of medieval egg-tempera painters. Her palette—influenced by the icon painters of Byzantium and later, Russia—is both vibrant and beautiful, with colors that blend in a subtle, poetic balance. Born in Russia in 1956, Liudmila Kondakova immigrated to the United States in 1991. A graduate of the Grabar Center in Moscow, she also attended Russia’s School of Sacred Arts, the Moscow Pedagogical Institute and the Moscow Art Institute. Kondakova connects her highly trained background to her artistic expression this way: “In my art, the essence and beauty has always rested in the details.”
