Interesting lot. Rest on the Dnipro hills by Volodymyr Kolesnyk

Ukrainian painter Volodymyr Artemovych Kolesnyk (1920-1986) was born in the village of Zhovte in the Dnipro region. In the postwar years, he received his artistic education at the Kyiv Art Institute, where he studied with such recognized masters of the brush as Tetyana Yablonska, Oleksii Shovkunenko, and Viktor Puzyrkov.

He worked as a teacher at the Kyiv School of Applied Arts. Since 1949, he participated in republican exhibitions and was a member of the Union of Artists since 1958.

Kolesnyk worked mainly in the field of landscape and genre painting. Picturesque views of the Dnipro River can be seen quite often in his works.

He created the painting "Youth Recreation" in the early 1970s, although apparently he had been working on it for about twenty years. The work is made in oil on canvas and has a considerable size - 120×160 centimeters. Its subject matter resonates with another work by the artist called "Song".

The bidding for the lot will last for about a week, the first fifteen bids have already been made.
