about this painting:

Old Friends

Long-awaited meeting

This painting of Leonid Afremov is included in his flowers, still life collection, most paintings form which resemble the ones from Janet Bell collection that contains many originals. The painting is unique in their own way since we do not find either flowers or still life as such – we see only the image of the bottles on the table – these are various alcoholic beverages. The canvas is called Old Friends.

Let's try to simulate the situation and describe the plot of the work. Actually, there was a meeting of two friends who hadn’t seen each other for a very long time and naturally they didn’t spare their money for expensive drinks to enjoy these moments. Judging by the choice of drinks, we can say that they have pretty good taste. On the table we see cognac, mate and other beverages. Surely these people look into this matter and selected all the well-known brands. It is obvious that the real lovers of strong alcohol only and people with good taste can afford such a collection. Let's hope that our characters will have a good evening and they will have something to remember, to tell each other.

The best of the best

Even if you do not understand alcoholic beverages, you will probably be interested to learn a few interesting facts about famous alcohol brands:

1. You can buy the authentic Jack Daniel’s at the legendary Tennessee distillery only. Each barrel contains about two hundred and fifty-two bottles of 750 ml of whiskey.
2. According to a story, the wife of the founder of the Bacardy rum company once noticed bats in a family plant and considered it a good sign. She insisted that they become the symbol of the company.
3. Like many great ideas, Wild Turkey is the result of a binge of one person with his buddies. Thomas McCarthy just took a few sample bottles of undiluted 101-degree whiskey from the warehouse going on a hunt wild turkeys.

Even if you are not an alcohol lover and do not know the famous alcoholic brands surely you have friends who love good booze and you will be able to please them with the painting of Leonid Afremov called Old Friends.
