Homage to K.A. Somov (Посвящение К.А. Сомов) is a highly accomplished portfolio demonstrating both Sapach’s skill as an artist and his ability to imitate the style of another great Russian artist, Konstantin Somov, whose 1918 masterwork, Le livre de la Marquise, you can see here.

Sapach’s clean lines, light skin contouring and fabric detail echo Somov’s distinctive style, creating a happy union between eighteenth century opulence and 1960s sexual revolution.
