Recognized master of miniature, painter Alexander Zakharov is also known for his work in various print techniques, including lithography and etching.

Imploring a unique method of enlarging the works, the creator allows his viewers to see the wealth of colors and intricate details of the original miniature. Since most original works by the painter are sold, the prints allow a wider audience to get acquainted with the work of this artist. Many of the prints are displayed in major public and private collections, including Fogg Museum of Art at Harvard University, The Portland Museum of Arts and New York Public Library. Listings wanted.
