ALEXEI PETROVICH BOGOLIUBOV(Russian 1824-1896)

Oil on canvas
32 inches x 25.75 inches (81.5 x 65.5 cm)
Provenance:
Private collection, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A.
Literature:
Nona V. Ogareva, A. P. Bogoliubov, Notes on a Sailor Artist, Samara, Russia 2014, page 30 illustrated as "Boat" and dated to circa 1847. (A copy of this book is included with this lot).Lot is further accompanied by a hand written and printed letter from Bogoliubov expert Nona V. Ogareva confirming the authenticity of the offered painting as being an early work by the artist. The letter also details other observations made by Ogareva after having examined the painting in hand. Her report suggests that the basis for the offered painting is the Imperial Russian Navy frigate Kamchatka. The Kamchatka was a steam frigate built in New York City in 1841 for the Baltic fleet which sailed until it was decommissioned in 1866. Ogareva notes that she believes the signature might have been added after restoration in the lower right corner. Because Ogareva dates the offered painting to the period of circa 1847, she explains that she believes it is an excellent example of Bogoliubov’s natural talents which had not yet at that time been fully formed and developed at the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts. (A copy of her letter is available online).
Alexei Petrovich Bogoliubov was a noted Russian marine and landscape painter. In 1841, he graduated from military school, serving in the Russian Navy and travelling with the fleet to many countries. In 1849, he started to attend classes at the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts, and was greatly influenced by Ivan Ayvazovsky. In 1853, he finished the Academy with a major Gold medal.
From 1854 to 1860, he travelled around Europe and worked prolifically. In Paris, he admired the artists of the Barbizon School, and became friends with the French painters Corot and Daubigny. Bogoliubov returned to Russia in 1860 where he exhibited his works in the Academy and received the title of professor and in 1871 he was elected to the Imperial Academy of Arts.
From 1870, he became close to the Wanderers art movement, and participated in all their exhibitions, as well as becoming a member of their Board. In 1885, Bogoliubov opened an art museum in Saratov, the Radischev Art Museum, named after his grandfather. It was the first art museum in Russia open to the general public, a full seven years earlier than the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow and fifteen years earlier than the Russian Museum in St. Petersburg. Bogoliubov died on February 3, 1896 in Paris.SHIPPING NOTICE:
