    Those two are in the penalty box in the Russian game of putigramarof, the cheap version of ice hockey that was influenced by Scotish curling.

    Shall Claudine Longet be competing in the team biathlon again? She made quite an impression years ago.

    Enlarged image can be found here or here (Google translated, search for raid). Smaller enlargement at the only work, by this artist, so far, to appear in Mr. Melcher’s blog (yesterday).On the Raid (Option) is probably privately owned (could find no confirmation of its whereabouts).A different coloration, click-to-enlarge image can be found here (Google translation says Location Unknown).Last November, a variation of this painting (click-to-enlarge image) was on auction, but, like the prior November, isn’t in the list of sold items. It last sold in 2001, but I could find nothing about this painting, auction, or otherwise.This painting is at about the 3:31 mark of this video (fullscreen is active, click the X in any ad to remove it)

    This video (same as before) has more paintings but not this oneThe artist’s Wikipedia page (Google translated Russian Wikipedia page may have more) and collection (more under Subcategories).

    GoComics stopped supporting embedded videos in comments. For some reason, this painting has been removed from the first, formerly embedded, video. This has the second, formerly embedded, video (also doesn’t have this painting).Another work by this artist can be found here.
