Oil on canvas, featuring abstract theme artwork. Signed and attr. Mikhail Larionov (Russian, 1881-1964), signature on lower left margin. 18.5 x 18 in. (47 x 45.7 cm). Mikhail Larionov was born in Tiraspol, a city near Odessa, Ukraine, in 1881. In 1900, he met fellow student Natalia Goncharova, and the two began their long-term collaboration and partnership. His early work included Impressionist landscapes, several of which he exhibited at the Salon d'Automne in Paris in 1906. Exposed to and influenced by contemporary French painting, he began using strategies of Symbolism, and in 1908 co-organized an exhibition of modern French painting in Moscow with the arts journal Zolotoye runo (Golden Fleece), which included work of the Post-Impressionists and Fauves.
