LOT NOTES
Russian painter Vniamiin Umansky, a graduate of the Arts Academy of I.E. Repin (1948), is best known for works in Social Realist style, which he exhibited in All-Union as well as regional exhibitions (now held in Russian institutions and international private collections). As evidenced by the inscription Stavropol division on verso, the present half-length portrait, depicting a sailor on board the infamous Aurora cruiser, was likely shown at one of the All-Union Soviet art exhibitions. The event that inspired the painting was the single "dry" shot fired from the Aurora on the night of October 26th, 1917, marking the beginning of the siege of the Winter Palace, a watershed event of October Revolution with which the ship itself became synonymous. Shown in reference image (Fig. 1) is preparatory painting from life made apparently a decade after the revolution.
