"The best artists are forwards in the column of mankind marching towards the progress. The best works of fine art are outposts of the bright future. Since ancient times, the real art strives to introduce a man to a better world, to contribute to his improvement, to arouse his lofty feelings." —SERGEI GERASIMOV

"Soldiers Of The Revolution"
The Russian Civil War, November 7, 1917 - October 25, 1922, was a multi-party civil war in the former Russian Empire immediately after the two Russian Revolutions of 1917, as many factions vied to determine Russia's political future.  The two largest combatant groups were the Red Army, fighting for the Bolshevik form of socialism led by Vladimir Lenin, and the loosely allied forces know as the White Army, which included diverse interests favoring political monarchism, economic capitalism and alternative forms of socialism, each, with democratic and anti-democratic variants.  In addition, rival militant socialists and non-ideological Green armies fought against both the Bolsheviks and the Whites.  Eight foreign nations intervened against the Red Army, notably the former Allied military forces from the World War and the pro-German armies.  The Red Army eventually defeated the White Armed Forces of South Russia in Ukraine and the army led by Admiral Alexander Kolchak to the east in Siberia in 1919.  The remains of the White Forces commanded by Pyotr Wrangel were beaten in Crimea and evacuated in late 1920.  Lesser battles of the war continued on the periphery for two more years, and minor skirmishes with the remnants of the White Forces in the Far East continued well into 1923...  More

The Art of Framing by L. P. Cline
I cannot emphasize enough how important the proper frame is to your Collection of Art. Whether you are framing fine art or your treasured family photos, the proper style and finish keeps you from destroying the individuality of the piece. The gilded frame on at least one painting in your home gives a warmth to the room. Museums around the country are beginning to identify the frames in their exhibitions to emphasize their importance to the finished look. I use the finest materials in the gilding process. I also carry a full line of very fine moulding for all looks. I can offer you European Close Corner framing as well...  More
WHO'S BEHIND THE CANVAS ?
I want to introduce to those of you who are not familiar with our twenty plus years of bringing Russian Art to the USA to our website and talk personally to you about our passion for the art and artists which drives my husband, LP, and myself, Dianne,Cline everyday to keep searching and learning to better understand the lifelong journey for these artists who gave up everything to use their God given talent to enrich all of our lives. Before art came into our lives, I never gave a lot of thought to the man or woman behind the canvas. Now when I look at any painting or other medium of art, my mind immediately wonders into the thought pattern of, “who is the real person behind this?” “It’s not important what or how good an artist I became. It’s important that I always remembered that the right to be an artist assumes absolute performance and responsibility. I never waived that rule.” A quote from Yuri Vnodchenko, Honored Artist of Russia, Voronezh, Russia. This quote with many others is in our book, “The Yellow Van” which is a journal about our hunt for beautiful art...  More

"The Yellow Van" by M. Dianne Cline
Москва в Воронеж (Moscow to Voronezh) Prologue . . . Looking out the window, I could see the snow falling heavily against the side of the train before hitting the ground. It was midnight, and all I could hear were the brakes shrieking to a stop and the clanging back-and-forth motion as the train started up again. After hours of the same sound and motion, I felt I was in a trance. The tranquil effect of watching snow softly falling helped me to forget about the physical hunger I was feeling...  More
