Artist Bio: Andrei Afanasievich Egorov (1878–1954), known in Estonia as Andrei Jegorov, was left deaf by a childhood injury and educated at the St. Petersburg School for the Deaf before entering the Imperial Academy of Arts, where he studied under Ilya Repin and worked in Repin's studio in 1903–04. He is identified above all with Russian and Estonian winter subjects — snow-covered roads, villages, and horse-drawn sleigh and troika scenes — handled in the Repin lineage of Russian realism inflected by Impressionism, with broken color and atmospheric snow-light. Gouache is entirely characteristic of him; he worked it extensively alongside oil and returned to these winter subjects repeatedly in small format. The sleigh in motion is his signature subject, horses and figures set as dark accents against broken snow-light.

All out-of-state buyers: we will assume your items require shipping and will coordinate it for you unless a lot is specifically marked for local pickup only or other arrangements are made with us in advance. For smaller eligible items, including jewelry, coins, sterling silver, and select small objects, we handle shipping in-house. These shipments are fully insured, require a signature, and include a $10 handling fee added to the final shipping cost. For all other items, we coordinate shipping through a local UPS Store or another appropriate third-party shipper. Once your auction invoice has been paid, the next invoice you receive will be a separate shipping invoice directly from the shipping provider. That invoice must be paid before your items are shipped. If you prefer to use your own shipper or arrange a third-party pickup, you must let us know within 2 days of the auction closing. We will coordinate release of the items once arrangements are confirmed.
