拍品专文

A Knight at the Crossroads was commissioned by Savva Mamontov and completed by the epic painter Viktor Vasnetsov (1848-1926) in 1882. The painting, now at the State Russian Museum in St Petersburg, depicts a mounted bogatyr gazing at a rock engraved with the words 'If you go straight ahead, there will be no life; there is no way forward for he who travels past, walks past or flies past.'
