Peter Panov

Panov was born in Izevsk, Ural. Graduated at Stroganoff Academy of Fine Art, Moscow. To tell about the theme of Peter Panov’s paintings is just to enter the small door into his vast and incredible imagination. He depicts Paris around 20s of 20th century.

That is why all the images are so alive despite the style of Peter’s paintings which is more cubistic then realistic.
