專家說明


These rare models of Ivan the Terrible and his boyar were part of the series called The Tsar's Hunt. They are based on a scene from Alexey Tolstoy's novel The Silver Prince, where Ivan the Terrible is being informed by his falconer that his hawk has flown away during the hunt. Grachev also produced a large bronze group on the same subject, which incorporates both models. A comparable model of a Boyar of Ivan the Terrible was sold at Sotheby's, London, 8 June 2011, lot 625.
