Biography from Stanford Fine Art:
| Vladimir Pavlovsky was born in the Ukraine, Russia and was predestined to become an artist as he came from a long line of Russian Interior decorators who were well-trained painters, guilders, and carvers. His father, Gregiory Pavlovsky, who was a decorator of ecclesiastical interiors, gave the young boy his training in the arts.
At the age of twenty, Vladimir moved to the United States to avoid conscription in the Tsar’s Army. Once in the United States, Vladimir settled in Boston, Massachusetts where he quickly became active in the art community of the area. He was a member of numerous organizations, such as the Boston Watercolor Society, Copley Society and Boston Guild of Artists, and exhibited regularly at numerous galleries and art associations.
Pavlovsky was skilled as an allegorical painter but specialized in shore scenes depicting the life of Gloucester fisherman and the coast of Maine. Pavlovsky was also commissioned to complete numerous murals and interiors throughout the Boston area.
