EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait captured by the talented Russian artist Konstantin Andreyevich Somov, we are transported to a different era, where smoking was not only accepted but also seen as an elegant and sophisticated habit. The woman in the photograph exudes an air of mystery and allure as she sits on a plush sofa, delicately holding a cigarette between her fingers. Somov's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke of this fine art image. The soft hues and gentle strokes create a dreamlike atmosphere that perfectly complements the subject matter. The woman's posture suggests relaxation and contemplation, perhaps lost in her own thoughts or enjoying a momentary escape from reality. As we gaze at this painting, we are reminded of the end of the 19th century and early 20th century Russia - a time when tobacco products were widely consumed, especially among the upper classes. This genre piece provides us with insight into societal norms and cultural practices during that period. This watercolour on paper print is part of a private collection, showcasing its rarity and value as an exquisite piece of art history. It serves as both an aesthetic delight for art enthusiasts and historians alike who seek to understand the nuances of Russian painting during this era.
