This oil painting is by Richard Sommer (1866-1939) who was a German who studied in St. Petersburg and became an influential artist in Russia. He then travelled extensively around Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, although the Second World War came around and he disappeared. This was a melting pot of people at the best of times before the conflict threw everything into the air, so anything could have happened to him.
The painting itself is of two yurts, now more commonly used by the middle class in fields across England as some glamping project, with some nomadic people. In the background are the Transcaucasian mountains, which we didn’t cross on our two week trip to the area (not least as they’re on the Russian border) but we can close to them at times.
Not being an expert on frames, I’ve gone to AI to date that, and it tells me that it’s a utilitarian picture frame from the late 1800s that was functional and decorative. And that fits into this being something likely painted for the home market, a little bit of culture that was on the wall of someone’s house once…
