Artist Info: Terechkovitch was born near Moscow in 1902, where he attended the Academy of Fine Arts. He arrived in Paris in 1920, where he has exhibited at the Girard, Quatre-Chemins, Elysee and has participated in the great salons and many group shows. Influenced by the peinture claire of the Impressionists and Bonnard, he has developed a remarkable technical virtuosity. Whatever his subject, his paintings express a characteristic desire for happiness. His work seems to place him in the group known as Peintres de la Realite Poetique. He is represented in several museums in France and abroad.
