Aleksandr Golovin studied at the Moscow College of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture initially as a student of architecture and later as a painter. He lived and worked in Moscow as an interior painter, furniture designer and decorator tradesman, and in 1900, in collaboration with Konstantin Korovin, he designed the interior décor of the Russian Empire pavilion at the Paris World’s Fair. Golovin moved to St. Petersburg in 1901, where he worked prominently as a stage designer until the Russian Revolution of 1917. He was the leading designer for the theaters in St. Petersburg at this time, and an important contributor to the legendary Ballets Russes, which commissioned the most esteemed choreographers, dancers, musicians and stage designers of the era, including Natalia Gontcharova, Mikhail Larionov, Marc Chagall, George Braques, Joan Miró, Max Ernst, Henri Matisse, and Pablo Picasso. Please note: this work is being exhibited in an exhibition frame and is being sold unframed. [18217-4-6000]
