      ZHUKOVSKY, Aeronautic vehicle, c.1840

      Est: $200 - $300

      ZHUKOVSKY RUDOLF KAZIMIROVICH (RUSSIAN-POLISH 1814-1886), Return of the aeronautic vehicle from Bombay, through Kaluga to London, plate from "Scènes populaires Russes", printed by Lemercier à Paris, published by Giuseppe Daziaro, c.1840, lithography, watercolor and varnish on paper, laid on thick paper, 38 x 29.5 cm (15 x 11 2/3 in.), plate mark measuring 23.5 x 18.5 cm (9 1/4 x 7 1/4 in.), inscribed lower left LOT NOTES Zhukovsky was a Russian artist of Polish descent, who studied at the Academy of Fine Arts with Aleksander Varnek from 1833 to 1839. In 1835 he was awarded a small silver medal for drawing from nature. In the 1840s he gained wide popularity as an illustrator who collaborated with N.A.Nekrasov in the almanac "St.Petersburg Physiology", as well as illustrated P.Ershov's "Humpbacked Horse" and I.A.Krylov's fables. Since 1872, he taught drawing at the St.Petersburg Institute of Technology. PROVENANCE INFORMATION This lot comes from the collection of Viktor Kholodkov (1948-2015), who fulfilled his passion for books, avant-garde design and paper memorabilia by devoting his life to collecting and dealing of prominent works of Russian graphic art of the first half of the 20th century. The dedicated collector acquired a multitude of books and artworks throughout decades, meticulously labeling and archiving every single item. Many came directly from the most preeminent artists of the time, as well as from their families and estates. He also possessed a vast number of drawings from the famous collection of another avant-garde enthusiast, Nikolai Khardzhiev. After leaving the USSR in 1989 and settling in California, Viktor continued his work as a Soviet art dealer and critic, actively publishing various articles and contributing to several major Russian avant-garde exhibitions across the U.S., such as the 1991 Russia Under Fire in the 40s on the West Coast and the 1992 Guggenheim exhibition The Great Utopia: The Russian and Soviet Avant-Garde. Kholodkov also contributed to the archives of the biggest American institutions. His sophisticated selection of over 2000 Russian sheet music covers was acquired by The Library of Congress, and an extensive amount of material related to VKhUTEMAS is now at the J. Paul Getty Museum.
