Felix Ziem (1821-1911). View of Venice: Doge`s Palace and Piazzetta Columns.

This impressive painting attributed to Felix Ziem (1821-1911) is an outstanding example of mastery and deep passion for architectural landscapes. The composition centers on the majestic Doge`s Palace, surrounded by architectural elements that are exquisitely decorative and in the typical Venetian style. In the foreground of the painting are the two iconic columns of the Piazzetta that lead to St. Mark`s Square. The eastern column is topped by a bronze statue of a winged lion, symbolizing St. Mark, the patron saint of the city. The western column is topped by a marble statue of St. Theodore, the founder of Venice. These architectural masterpieces highlight the cultural and historical wealth of Venice, being important elements of its unique urban landscape. The front of the painting attracts the viewer`s attention with a boat with seated passengers in bright clothes and a gondolier skillfully managing an oar, which emphasizes the liveliness and dynamism of the scene. The author, following the traditions of the Barbizon school, uses a bright palette and special attention to light, creating a contrast between the warm shades of the buildings and the deep blue sky. This technique not only conveys the architectural beauty, but also gives the painting expressiveness and atmosphere. This painting is one of a series of works created by the author after an inspiring trip to Venice, where every stroke and color conveys his admiration for this city. The painting demonstrates painting techniques that anticipate elements of impressionism, which makes it a valuable testimony to the artistic development of its time. The painting is enclosed in an exquisite gilded frame emphasizing the grandeur of this work. Dimensions of the painting: 55.5 cm x 38.5 cm. Canvas, oil.

Icon of the Lord Almighty. Silver enamel. Nikolay Grachev. Moscow. circa 1900

The icon of the Lord Almighty, created in Moscow at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, is a half-length image of Christ in the classical iconographic tradition: in his left hand he holds an open book, and blesses with his right hand. The work was made by a professional master in the academic style typical of Moscow workshops of the late 19th century. The silver frame is decorated with a shining enamel crown, and its fields are covered with a relief chased plant ornament. At the bottom of the icon there is a plaque with an inscription made using the technique of pitted enamel. The icon is an example of the neo-Russian style, which combines elements of historicism and Art Nouveau, popular in Russian art at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Hallmarks: silversmith in Cyrillic NG, presumably Nikolai Yegorovich Grachev, Hallmark of the Moscow District Assay Office with the initials of the district manager Ivan Sergeevich Lebedkin, appointed in 1899.
