Unframed and large, the portrait is 28" x 35", the total canvas size is 29" x 37". This is most likely a licensed reproduction of one of the most widely known portraits of Lenin reproduced from the original b/w photo. This is definitely not a cheap Chinese airbrush job which flood today's market. It becomes clear from the quality and professionalism of the artwork, from the precision of the brush strokes, that this portrait was done by a professional artist who had official permission to paint Lenin. Not too many Soviet artists had this permission. Lenin's portraits of this size and artistic quality usually graced the wall behind the desk of a high-level Party bureaucrat.

In excellent condition. The image is pristine. Very minor paint loss at two of the corners does not affect the image, but adds character and an aura of authenticity and age to the painting.

Please note that the 1-ft. ruler in our last photo is for size reference.

Please note: the portrait will be shipped safely packed inside a sturdy cardboard mailing tube.
