"Le Compas d'Or" Serigraph by Liudmila Kondakova Framed dimensions: 40"x48" Print dimensions: 29"x37" Signed lower right Numbered lower left Limited Edition LXVI/C (#66/100) Born in Russia in 1956, Liudmila Kondakova emigrated to the United States in 1991. A graduate of the Grabar Center in Moscow, she also attended Russia's School of Sacred Arts, the Moscow Pedagogical Institute and the Moscow Art Institute. The artist received practical training while an apprentice in Moscow under the guidance of modern monastic icon painters. Of this state in her training, she recalls, "The monks of St. Alexi Cathedral in Moscow shared the secrets of the solemn beauty of icon painting with me, a beauty that lies in the love that goes into each detail, no matter how small or insignificant. In my art, the essence and beauty has always rested in the details." Regarding her choices for subject matter, Kondakova states - "When I work on a Paris street scene, I try to use interesting detail to conjure up the atmosphere of the street in its entirety." In the hands of this artist, the shops and boulevards that have been interpretated by generations of artists take on a persona that reflects both the present day as well as a rich sense of the past.
