Description from the seller
Mikhail ASHKHOTOV (Born in 1959)
Nude standing at the mirror, 1994
Technique: Original color lithography on paper.
Signatures: Signed on the plate at the bottom right; countersigned and dated "Ashkhotov 94" in pencil by the artist in the lower left margin.
Dimensions (sight): 43 x 33 cm.
Condition: Very good state of conservation.
Presented under glass in a molded and gilded wooden frame with sculpted decoration.
Description of the subject & stylistic analysis
This work is an intimate composition representing a three-quarter seated female nude, belonging to the great tradition of European 20th-century modernity.
The model is captured in a lascivious and sculptural pose, arms raised behind the head, enhancing the arch and the pure lines of the body.
The silhouette, outlined by a dark and vigorous contour reminiscent of Expressionism and Fauvism, stands out against a contrasted background combining flat areas of gray and deep blue. To the right of the composition, a mirror with a red oval frame adds geometric depth to the space and echoes the abstract motifs of the drapery on which the model rests.
The mastery of lithographic technique here perfectly renders the grain and sensitivity of textures, evoking the softness of pastel or oil crayon.
Biographical note about the artist
Mikhail ASHKHOTOV is a painter and graphic artist of Russian origin, born in 1959 in Nalchik. A graduate of the prestigious Saint Petersburg Academy of Arts (Repin Institute), he received a solid classical training there, which he quickly confronted with Western avant-garde movements.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, he settled in Central Europe in the early 1990s. His creation period around 1993 corresponds to a phase of intense international recognition, marked by major exhibitions in the Czech Republic (Prague) and Italy (Mantua). His work, characterized by a celebration of the human form and a vibrant use of color, is today sought after by modern art collectors in Eastern and Western Europe.
