Kholodilina

martinbruffell · September 7th, 2011, 10:33 AM

I have a painting by a “Russian” painter so i am told but I know nothing about it.

On the back of the frame it says in English :

E H KHOLODILINA

There is script in red in Russian, I assume, that I cannot decipher.

The date 1953.

Any comments ?

Many thanks.

There's a record of an Elena Kholodilina.

Good work John.

I found some extra information. Her full name is Elena Nicolaivna Kholodilina. Sometimes Nicolaivna is written Nicolaevna. Born on 31.10.1932.
I guess she is still alive and living in Russia. There is a Elena Nicolaevna Kholodilina living in Volgograd and on internet you can found her address and telephone number. Would be great if you can get in contact with this lady.

And if I looked it up correctly, the N sound in Russian is written as something close to an "H", so the signature potentially matches.
