About the Item

Christmas (La Navidad) acrylic paint on canvas by Elena Narkevich. Dimension not framed: 195 H x 162 W cm x 2 cm D In inches: 76.77 H, 63.78 W, x 1.18 D Elena Narkevich work is well known due to the ability to transmit emotions such as pleasure, surprise, sadness... Although there are those who see in Elena's characters influences of Botero's voluptuous figures, Elena has been inspired by other sources: her fat women have emerged from the aesthetics of the "Matrioska", the wooden doll that is the most emblematic product of Russian craftsmanship. , reproducing the kind faces of the simple women of everyday life. Elena Narkevich was born in Minsk-Belarus, and her paintings transmit a nostalgia for the traditional home warmth of her native country, for everything known, frequently repeating its folkloric elements such as the piled up Armenian carpets. Her spaces are very intimate, full of lyricism, nuanced with a refined sense of humor that enhances the strength with which she manages to transmit the communication of emotions.

  • "Dancers resting VII". Impressionist interior scene with two girls. Oil on panel
    By Iain FAULKNER
    Located in Segovia, ES
    "Dancers resting VII". Impressionist interior scene with two girls. Oil on panel Measurements in centimeters: 61 x 61 cm / In inches 24.02 x 24.02 “ Framed: 78 x 78 x 4 cm. / In inches 30.71 x 30.71 x 1.57 " This artwork , signed IF in the left down corner, by the author Iain Faulkner, is a very well studied composition with two dancers, dressed in blue color, lying on a beautiful mosaic floor with gold border, having a rest. The circle design of the mosaic, the figures in three quarters in parallel; opposite the postures, the suits, and the colors blue and flesh. This complementation above and below, and to the left and right of the painting, gives the painting a surprising composition and excellent balance. Despite the thick brushwork, the author achieves a very subtle effect in the definition of the two beautiful figures and very successful effects of light and shadow. Iain Faulkner acknowledges the influence on his painting of artists such as Sargent, Degas, Whistler and, especially, Vermeer, showing scenes with figures performing everyday tasks while lost in thought, like this two dancers. This piece was originaly purchased from Albemarle Gallery in London. ABOUT THE ARTIST Born in Glasgow in 1973 and graduating from Glasgow School of Art in 1996 with a BA (Honours) in Fine Art. His degree show was sell-out. Iain Faulkner is now one of Britain's top figurative painters, a stablished artist with the Albemarle/Pontone Galleries in London, and with numerous solo shows in New York, Paris, Geneva, Monaco and Bologna .
