“Foggy Morning” (Year of production 1989) Oil on board 90 x 70 cm

Curator's comment about this painting:
This painting, painted by A.V. Ovcharov (1926~94), is a work that I purchased for the first time at the art gallery, affiliated by Russian Artists' Union, on the 31 of march 1990. Looking back from the result, I think everything that is important for me, that is to say, not only establishing art museum, which I could not even dream, but also working there as a curator, began from this painting. If I could not have encountered this excellent work, most probably, my paintings' collection would have been restricted to a small and moderate one and so such development as shown at present could not have been expected. Namely, this work is “an honored signboard” of our art gallery”, so to speak. That’s why this painting is printed on the admission ticket.
