I do think this is an outstanding portrait. Thanks, Jigszag!

This painting is outstanding. To say "I really like it" is an understatement. The face that tells it all. Makes me want to talk to this gentleman. Thank you Blue. Once again you amaze me.

Bluestockings

That's true, Sara. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I really like this portrait and enjoyed doing it even though the poor man looks really depressed. Not everything has to be happy happy !

@Bibliophile Perhaps you'd be happier visiting someone else's puzzles, then.

Bibliophile

I don't know why not, he is the artist of this painting.
He is Russian and one of the first Russian artists to be
widely recognized abroad. (I think this is of interest)

Plus due to the graphic nature of his realist scenes few were
every printed or exhibited. (I find this to be of interest also).

The subject is a gypsy, and you think it captures the intelligence
and dignity of the gypsy. where the heck are you getting that.

At least my comments are factual. Yours are way out there in
space.

And further more, I think you are rude and your comments
are irrelevant. Bib

I'm not sure that information is relevant to this portrait, Bib, but thank you.

Bluestockings

Thank you, Tom. Yes, I think this is a very good portrait that truly captures the intelligence and dignity of the subject.

Vasily Vasilyevich Vereshchagin, was one of the most famous Russian war artists and one of the first Russian artists to be widely recognised abroad. The graphic nature of his realist scenes led to many of them never being printed or exhibited. Wikipedia
