there's something very touching about this Madonna-and-child. The decrepit factory they're backed up with may be a dark eyesore, but at least the lights are on.
(I recently ran across a book full of assorted Russian modernists of a similar period. The one appealing most to me was Aristarkh Lentulov. Would you have any of his work?)
Collected here are works by artists who are forgotten, under appreciated, or little known, as well as news, reviews and ephemera from the corners of art history. Works of startling quality can be found beyond the big names in the visual arts, whether it is just one exceptional work, an area of an artists oeuvre, or an entire career worth re-examining.

Lentulov is covered briefly here.

("at least the lights are on." love this)
Le mouvement des mains est très délicat, très beau.
What a strange Madonna. I think I like this...
Good one.
These are simply lovely.
