Description
A very decorative print of a priest, by prince Gagarine. Showing a white bearded old man with a walking stick. Good detail of the costume. From the serie "Costumes du Caucase", after Prince Grigory Grigorievich Gagarin and lithographed by J.Keller. Printed by Lemercier in Paris. The lithographed are beautifully finished with water color and gum Arabic. Good detail of the costume.
From the serie Costumes du Caucase. Very rare as the series was only published in instalments in the 1840's.
Prince Grigory Grigorievich Gagarin was born Saint-Petersbourg, Russia (11 mai 1810) and died in Châtellerault, France (30 janvier 1893). He was a Russian painter, Major General and administrator.
Gagarin travelled to the Caucasus (1839-1840) following his friend Mikhail Lermontov. Gagarin's Caucasian period was probably the most prolific period of his artistic career. He drew numerous drawings and watercolors depicting battle scenes, Caucasian warriors and Russian soldiers as well as genre scenes of the life of people of the Caucasus.
These works were later reproduced as color lithographs in the album series "Le Caucase Pittoresque", (Paris, 1847-1859) and Scènes, paysages, mœurs et costumes du Caucase (Paris, 1845-1846).
