A note on this sale

Sale 001 brings together two paintings of the same Jerusalem subject executed roughly a hundred and twenty-five years apart: a German Orientalist canvas of the 1890s and a contemporary Russian realist oil of 2017. They are offered together because they belong together; private inquiries are welcome on either work, or the pair.
