In a Restaurant, 1914
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an oil on canvas painting by Russian artist Vladimir Egorovic Makovsky. The artwork, measuring 35.3x23.7 cm, depicts a bustling scene in a restaurant during the early 20th century. The composition captures the essence of indulgence and excess as it portrays various characters engrossed in their own desires. The focal point of the painting is an obese man sitting at a table, smoking a cigar and surrounded by empty plates and bottles. His gluttonous appearance symbolizes greed and overindulgence, while his satisfied expression suggests that he has thoroughly enjoyed his meal. The caricature-like figures surrounding him add to the satirical nature of the artwork. A waiter stands nearby with an amused smirk on his face, perhaps observing this display of extravagance with resignation or amusement. Makovsky's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this interior scene - from the ornate decorations adorning the walls to the carefully rendered textures of fabrics and objects within the space. As part of the Peredvizhniki group (also known as "Wanderers" or "Itinerants"), Makovsky was known for his ability to capture everyday life in Russia through art. This particular piece serves as both social commentary and entertainment, highlighting themes such as wealth disparity and societal norms around consumption. This print from Fine Art Finder allows viewers to appreciate Makovsky's skillful brushwork up close while immersing themselves in this
