Lot Essay

Experience the breathtaking beauty of nature in one of the most remote places on earth – the northern part of Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula. A land of bears and red fish, where humans are few and far between.

Capturing the grandeur of this panoramic view, showcasing the raw power of nature, took master photographer Sergey Melnikoff hours of scouting through the rugged taiga forest to find the perfect spot. And even then, it took an entire hour to remove the five or six dried tree trunks blocking the camera’s view for that perfect shot.

With luck on his side, as heavy storm clouds covered the sky from horizon to horizon, Melnikoff had to rely on his instincts. But just minutes before sunset, the sun appeared through a narrow opening between two clouds, confirming the tales about a lucky photographer favored by Mother Nature herself.

Sadly, Kamchatka is now a closed area, strictly guarded by the Russian military, and inaccessible to foreign visitors. But fear not, for Sergey’s stunning photographs offer a glimpse into this mysterious and captivating land, and serve as a testament to the power and beauty of Mother Nature. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of this rare and incredible collection.
