Valentin Alexandrovich Serov (1865–1911) was a Russian painter and prominent portrait and graphic artist.
The painter’s works are characterized by diversity: he produced landscape paintings, created historical and mythological compositions, theatre billboards, sketches for theatre plays and book illustrations.
All his works are marked by the search for a new artistic language. Valentin Serov’s strong sense of time and intolerance of any falsehood make his paintings a source of knowledge about living in Russia at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
The postage stamp depicts Valentin Serov’s painting October. Domotkanovo (1895, State Tretyakov Gallery) with his portrait in the margins.
An illustrated cover has been prepared for the release with cancelled FDCs (Moscow, Saint Petersburg) inside.
