"Peasant Family" — Pavel Nikolayevich Filonov

In this painting, the artist conveys his interpretation of the Gospel through the figures of Mary and Joseph, depicted as humble peasants. Their appearance is earthly, devoid of grandeur. The man raises his hands toward the sky, embodying humility and gratitude to God. The mother’s face reflects quiet anxiety over the fate of the child she has been given.

The animals in the composition symbolize guides and guardians of the soul. The infant’s pose—with outstretched arms and a penetrating gaze—forms the emotional and thematic core of the work. Filonov frames the entire scene like an icon, surrounded by the flowers of a heavenly garden.

"Dark Star" — Glenn Brown
Price: $56,000

Glenn Brown’s work walks the line between beauty and unease. At first, *Dark Star* seems decorative—shimmering tones, soft blue backdrop, a fantastical headpiece. But it quickly feels less like a portrait and more like a surreal, alien vision.

Brown pulls from classical art, pop culture, and sci-fi, twisting them into fluid, unstable forms. His brushstrokes look thick and textured, though the surface is smooth—painting as illusion.

Here, opposites clash: a childlike face, pearls, theatrical costume—yet radiating alienation, as if glimpsed through a dream or digital haze. The piece draws you in, then subtly resists. Its power lies in that tension.

Brown doesn’t paint individuals—he shows how images mutate, lose meaning, become ghostly. *Dark Star* is built from cultural fragments: baroque, surrealism, sci-fi—all fused into something uncanny.

This is art that feels familiar, yet deeply strange.

«Portrait of a Lady» — Joseph-Siffred Duplessis

This painting doesn’t rely on grandeur — and that’s precisely what makes it captivating. The woman is portrayed calmly, almost motionless, without theatrical pose or gesture. Yet her gaze, the turn of her head, and a subtle detachment bring the image vividly to life.

Duplessis had a rare gift for clarity in portraiture: no unnecessary shine, just deep attention to the person. Nowhere is this more evident than in her face — not idealized into cold perfection, but rendered with striking authenticity. She’s not merely an 18th-century noblewoman; she’s an individual, with character, mood, and quiet dignity.

"Sitges" — Joan Roig i Soler
Price: $51,000

This painting isn’t about drama — it’s about presence. No postcard perfection, just real waterfront life: sun-bleached houses, barrels, boats, quiet labor. The artist captures essence — warm air, dry light, faint smoke, a vast sky dwarfing tiny human figures.

Here, Sitges isn’t a resort. It’s a working shore, alive in its stillness. The rhythm is slow, honest. You feel the creak of wood, footsteps on sand, water lapping gently.

Light is key. Walls aren’t bright — they’re faded by sun. The sea doesn’t shout; it waits, calm and quiet. Transitions speak volumes: land to water, work to rest, heat to breeze.

This isn’t spectacle. It’s truth. A moment without fanfare that feels deeply real.

«Gastrojejunostomy (Kocher)» — Jess

A piece you can’t look away from, even if it makes you uneasy. Jess takes an almost clinical subject and transforms it into something disturbing, nearly symbolic: the body here is no longer mere anatomy, but a space being physically invaded.

What stands out most is the color contrast — cold blue within, painfully warm yellowish tones outside. This duality makes the artwork feel simultaneously medical and strangely alive. It’s genuinely mesmerizing — the way powerful art should be: not just compelling, but subtly destabilizing.

Vasily Maximov – "The Arrival of the Sorcerer at a Peasant Wedding"

Price: ~$350,000

A lively wedding—song, candles, pie—until the sorcerer arrives. In Russian tradition, magic shadows joy.

Maximov, a master of genre painting, shows raw, lived Russia—where faith meets fear.

Dramatic lighting: the sorcerer emerges from darkness, like a villain on stage. Reactions range from fear to forced calm. He captures crowd psychology in real time.

In 19th-century rural life, beliefs in curses and the evil eye were real. Weddings weren’t safe. The sorcerer embodies dark forces piercing celebration.

This isn’t magic—it’s tension. Candles flicker, yet the room chills. One figure silences joy.

Russian genre art thrives on such moments: superstition, social layers, glances that speak volumes.

"Nymphs Hunting" — Julius LeBlanc Stewart

Sun-dappled woods, soft grass, warm air. Naked nymphs move with ease and grace, as if they naturally belong to the landscape itself. Ahead, a white dog stands alert, ready to dash forward. They carry spears, yet their postures suggest playfulness far more than aggression.

This isn’t a scene of real hunting, but rather an antique fantasy of nature and freedom. The nymphs’ bodies are bathed in sunlight—calm, natural, blending seamlessly into the greenery around them. Even the dogs seem like companions, not tools of the chase.

The painting glows with light and carefreeness. The hunt is merely an excuse—to celebrate the harmony of motion, youth, and beauty, all immersed in a summer forest.

Fyodor Syschkov – “Christoslavs”
Price: ~$180,000

Children again—but no cozy home this time. Just a snowy village, felt boots caked in snow, and fragile hope in their eyes.

“Christoslavs” were kids who sang door-to-door at Christmas for treats—a simple pact: sing, get a pie.

Syschkov mastered painting peasant children—not pitiful, not heroic—just real. Rosy, tired, alive.

Their gazes differ: bold, cautious, one already used to rejection. The artist freezes the moment of waiting.

Light from the left window is symbolic: warmth inside, cold out. The threshold divides comfort and hardship.

His brushwork is loose, textured, alive—no polished finish, just raw early 20th-century emotion.

No drama, just stillness. Hats in hand, they stand. In that quiet, the soul of rural winter lives.

Art history isn’t just emperors and battles. It’s also these wet boots left at someone’s door.

“The Man with the Owl” — Konstantin Alexeevich Vasiliev

An elder on the hilltop — master of these lands. His fur coat blends into the snow, nearly vanishing.

His appearance seems lifted from a fairy tale: long hair and beard, deep wrinkles across a high forehead, thick white eyebrows. His stern countenance embodies the spirit of the Northern wilderness.

In his right hand, the sage holds a candle — a symbol of faith and inner light, burning steady against the darkness. At his feet, another fire flickers. On a scroll inscribed with ancient Slavic script is written the artist’s pen name — «Konstantin Velikoross». From the ashes, an oak sapling rises, a quiet promise of rebirth — an enduring allegory.

“The Martyrs” — Gustave Doré

The arena lies empty of spectators, yet crowded with bodies. Figures sprawl across the stone floor—fallen, scattered, lifeless. Predators have either already feasted or crouch, ready to finish their grim task. The entire scene sinks into a heavy, brooding darkness.

And then—light. Above the carnage, angels appear. They hover in calm surrender, almost serene, as if belonging to another realm entirely. Their radiance doesn’t revive the dead, but seems to whisper: suffering is not the end.

Doré masterfully wields contrast—darkness against divine glow, brutality against hope. This is more than a historical depiction of early Christians. It’s a meditation on faith in the face of horror. A quiet tragedy, silent yet echoing with eternal weight.
