| Description |
Замужняя женщина Олонецкой губернии Каргопольского уезда (из серии "Народы русских северных губерний"). 1905 г. Открытка издания "Общины св. Евгении". Ivan Yakovlevich Bilibin 1876-1942 RUSSIAN A MARRIED WOMAN FROM OLONETS PROVINCE, 1905 signed in Cyrillic and dated 1905 (lower right); inscribed Costume du Nord, 1907 and in Cyrillic (on the reverse) watercolor and ink on paper 15 1/4 by 11 in. 39 by 28 cm This lot is accompanied by a postcard designed from A Married Woman of Olonets Province and issued by the publishing house of the Red Cross Society of St. Eugenia, St. Petersburg. Objects used in everyday peasant life, photographs and sketches brought back from the Russian North, and an assortment of publications dealing with the cultural history of Russia were Bilibin's constant companions. In 1904, the ethnographic department of the Russian Museum sent the artist to Olonets Province, near Petrozavodsk. The trip resulted in a series of postcards for the Red Cross Society of St. Eugenia, for which the present lot is a study. The members of the World of Art group, Bilibin among them, gladly contributed to the publications of the Society of St. Eugenia, founded in St. Petersburg in 1882. The society's publishing house largely devoted itself to education; its series of open letters, travel guides, and monographs introduced the Russian public to the nation's cities, artistic treasures, and works by contemporary artists. |
