Kira Iwanova was born in 1928 in Kuibyshev (Samara)
Graduated from the Moscow Surikov State Institute in 1955.
In the years 1954-55 she participated in the restoration of Franz Roubaud’s “Defense of Sevastopol”, the famous panorama in the city of Sevastopol.
Due to her frequent travels she fell in love with the Krim area and the maritime genre. The paintings presented in my gallery are from this period.
As of 1956 the artist participated in several art exhibitions, working in genres of subject painting, portrait and landscape.
The paiting of Kira Iwanova are at the State Tretiakov Gallery, the art museums of Riga, Odessa, Simferopol, Yalta and also in private collections in Germany, Japan, England, France and The Netherlands.
