Art Brokerage: Alexandr Averin Russian Artist: b. 1952. Born in 1952 in Noginsk, near Moscow, he learned his technique from the painter Dmitri Yorontnov at the School of Fine Arts "Souvenir de I'An 1905" in Moscow.

His style is purely realistic, with a strong influence of the late 19th Century Russian painters, usually depicting domestic scenes in a soft twilight. His realistic painting is typical for the ones of the end of the 19th Century. Like Pavel Fedotov, Averin's favorite painter, he works outside in the air, using surroundings to inspire the brush and compliment the work. Listings wanted.
