VLADIMIR GRIEGOROVICH TRETCHIKOFF was born in 1913 in Siberia, Russia. He was a self taught artist who shot to international fame with his portrait "Chinese Girl", now better known as the Green Lady and/or the Mona Lisa of Kitsch, to be the World's best selling print ever. Read the full story of the Green lady: The Tretchikoff Green Lady: Full story.
Perhaps his second most famous image is Balinese Girl which is arguably even more haunting and rated much more collectable since it is rarer. A personally signed version is extremely rare.
Tretchikoff held his first solo exhibition in Shanghai in 1933 and exhibited extensively worldwide thereafter, holding more than 30 major shows until his death in 2006. During the period 1978-99 four films were made about the artist, by the BBC, South African Broadcasting Corporation and Eurovision. In 1946 he moved permanently to South Africa and much of his later work is strongly influenced by the South African environment. The artist died in Cape Town in 2006
