You are purchasing a unique mini-sculpture from the collection of bronze figures that embodied the images of world ballet characters. These exquisite images creates in bronze by real master, honoured artist and sculptor of Russia - Nina Mikhailovna Kukhtevich.
The work of the sculptor Nina Kukhtevich is imbued with love for choreographic art; she attends classes and rehearsals, making sketches of outstanding ballet dancers. The height of the artist's task is to convey at the moment the state of the spirit, movement, expressiveness of the image. During the festival, Nikiya has to dance, they bring her a basket of flowers, where a snake was hidden, from the bite of which she will have to die. In the bronze figure, the viewer sees dramatic expressiveness: Nikiya is straight, thin with a raised protesting hand, with her eyes directed to the sky. And this namely is the case when the personality of the sculptor goes into the shadows, and the artist and the image that he embodies come to the fore.
The work was exhibited at the Tretyakov Gallery (Krymsky Val) at the exhibition Art Prize "Golden Antip".
