Boris Smirnoff

Boris Smirnoff (1894/95 - 1976) was active/lived in France.  Boris Smirnoff is known for Modernist figure, celebrity portrait, nude and genre painting.

Boris Smirnoff was born at the end of the 19th century of French nationality.  He studied in the studio of Lucien Simon at l'École des Beaux-Arts in Paris.

Smirnoff exhibited in Paris, London, Lisbon, New York, Stockholm, Berne, Geneva, Claire, Palerme, Rome, Nice, and Cannes.   He also exhibited in Cagnes-sur-Mer where he usually resided.  The dates of his birth and death remain a mystery, but his major body of work is from the 1920's through the 1940's

Smirnoff's work is subtle and sensual; it is believed that he worked closely with Tsugoharu Fougita, Japnese-born French painter, as their pastels are similar in technique.  He painted many portraits including Hollywood actors and actresses. He also did many nudes and semi-erotic works.

Smirnoff created some of the decorations for the Italian Embassy in Tokyo. His works can be found in the art museums of Cagnes-sur-Mer, Claire, Grenoble, Moscow and Prague.   ...  [Displaying 964 of 1150 characters.]  Artist bio
