Petr Petrovic Verescagin Art for Sale at Auction

Painter, Landscape painter

(b Perm, Russia, 1836; d St Petersburg, 1886) Russian Painter. Born in Perm, Petr Vereshchagin, the brother of Vasilii Petrovich, was already an established fresco painter before he enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts in St Petersburg. He eventually became an Academician in 1873. Vereshchagin was particularly known for his skill at rendering perspective and, owing to his peregrination through Russia, his topographical views. From 1868 onwards, the work stemming from his visits to Moscow, St Petersburg, Finland, Crimea, the Caucasus, Kiev, Sebastopol and the Urals was frequently on show at Academicians' Exhibitions.
