Gouache on paper, featuring Cubist painting, signed and attr. Nadezhda Andreyevna Udaltsova (Russian, 1886-1961) on the lower right corner, 10.4 x 7.9 in. (26.5 x 20 cm), Nadezhda Udaltsova was one of the leading figures of the pre-Revolutionary Russian avant-garde. Of her Russian peers she was the most influenced by French Cubism. But personal misfortunes and the social conditions of the Stalinist era led her to withdraw to her studio, turning her into a marginal figure in Soviet art. PROVENANCE: Southern Ontario estate
