Great drawing by the masterful portrait painter, Nicolai Fechin
Nicolai Fechin’s style in works, like Christmas Eve, Taos Pueblo (also known as Taos Pueblo Sketch), 1927-1933, is best described as a masterful blend of academic realism and expressive abstraction, often categorized within the broader tradition of Russian and American Impressionism.
Fechin's portrait study of the American Impressionist artist, Elmer Schofield.
