SERGEI SAKHAROV (1906-1969)

CRIMÉE. 1935.


38½x26 inches, 98x66 cm. Intourist, [USSR].
Condition A- / B+: repaired tears through central image and at lower left edge with slight overpainting; minor creases and abrasions in image.

The "Swallow's Nest," situated on a cliff overlooking the Black Sea, on the southeastern tip of the Crimean Peninsula, was built between 1911 and 1912. At some point reconstruction added four smaller, gothic turrets on top of the front-most, highest tower. This is the French version.
