About this piece
Hand - painted Wine Glass (II) is an original, one-of-a-kind work by Sergei Troshin, born 1960, based in Canada. It is made with acrylic, sealed with varnish. It was completed in 2020. There is only one — nothing here is a print or a reproduction.
Materials and finish
Varnish — Varnish is a thin protective coat over the finished paint. It evens out the sheen and shields the surface from dust and handling.
Acrylic — Acrylic dries quickly and stays flexible, which lets layers be laid over one another in a single session and scraped back while still workable. Tate’s glossary entry on acrylic paint explains the term in more detail.
Looking after it
The varnish layer is there to be cleaned: a dry, soft cloth is enough, and water or solvent is not.
Room conditions matter more than anything else: stable temperature, stable humidity, no direct sun. The American Institute for Conservation publishes plain-language guidance on caring for artwork at home.
From the same year
2020 is represented in the catalogue by 4 works. Alongside this one: Decorative Composition 1, Decorative composition 2 and Decorative Composition 3.
