sia antion, riga, latvia
LARGE CARVED WOODEN BOOK KNIFE WITH VOIVODA. P.I. SOMOV 1918. Made in the breathtaking spirit of Russian Art Nouveau and conveys the appearance of a thoughtful, daring governor.

The level of plastic work and artistic generalizations betray the hand of a skilled carver, if not a sculptor. Perhaps this is an abbreviation for an artel of carvers or a workshop. The magical message of the outgoing Russian modernity. Wood, carving, dark stain. Length: 39.2 cm. On the back is the inscription “P.I. SOMOV.
