add Your note 
Lot description Show orginal version

No title: Tropical Village. Signatures in pencil under the graphic: A.Laszenko linocut 1929
Original color linocut by Alexander Laszenko, 17.6 x 9.9 cm, framed (35.5 x 23 cm). Paper yellowed, passe-partout and frame old, not removed from the frame.
The motif was later repeated in the form of a color woodcut (from 1933?), in a slightly altered color form(possibly this one has discolored/faded).

Alexander Lashenko (1883-1944) painter and traveler, studied in St. Petersburg in 1901-04. He traveled a lot - almost every year he went to Egypt, traveled around the world and Europe, also traveled in Poland. In Egypt he was passionate about archaeological excavations - he was friends with Howard Carter, the discoverer of Tutankhamun's tomb.
Lashenko's artistic work is dominated by paintings with oriental themes - views of oases, villages, caravans, views of Egyptian cities and monuments, and portraits of women of exotic beauty. Beginning in 1921, the artist regularly exhibited his works at Warsaw's Zachęta Gallery. He published a portfolio of woodcuts entitled Teka wschodnia[1936 or later], containing woodcuts from 1933-36.
