41 reviews

Constantin Alexandrovitch Westchiloff, Russian, American, 1877 to 1945, oil on board painting depicting a seascape. Signed in Latin lower left. Framed, bears a Doyle auction house on verso. Constantin Westchiloff is known for Landscape, seascape, figure, and genre painting. Provenance: Doyle auction house, Doyle at Home, August 24, 2023, Lot 73. Constantin Alexandrovitch Westchiloff is an American Russian artist. He was born in Russia in 1877, and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg; as an artist, he traveled extensively in Europe and in the USA. He finally settled in New England. He is probably best known for seascapes, particularly of the New England coastline, but was also well regarded for his landscapes, portraits and figures, and genre subjects. His work, especially after his travels in Europe and then in America, is closest to Impressionist in style. His favored medium was oil, which was well suited to his confident and strong technique. This in turn imbued his paintings of the rugged landscapes and seascapes of New England with the drama typical of this area. One of a kind artwork. Modernist Paintings, Russian Fine Art And Wall Decor Collectibles.
