Friendly service and pleasant stay
My boyfriend and I stayed at the Coral Hotel in September 2004. We had one of the best holidays ever. The hotel was fantastic. The pool was great.
The staff is very friendly and they make it a good welcoming atmosphere, the rooms are nice and clean, the food is great, i would definitely go again!!
We loved the Coral hotel
My Wife and I have been making the Coral hotel in Roda our favourite holiday hotel in Greece. We make the Coral hotel our regular hotel in all these years we have never had any cause to complain, in fact we have booked again for June 2005. the management and staff I would say are exceptional. the location is spot on, I may add we are both elderly not yet on zimma frames tho.
if you are considering going to Corfu the Coral hotel is the one but book early have a great holiday.
Best beach hotel in Greece!
Me and my wifearehad a brillant holiday at the Corla hotel in Corfu!!!! We had the best most relaxing holiday ever.
Situated in a beautifull area just in front of the beach and only short walk to some quality shops and choice of several beaches. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Hotel was spotless and all areas within the hotel very clean. Food second to none very wide choice of meat/fish or vegetarian dishes some cooked while you wait. Bedrooms large and spacious ours with view of sea and mountains. The resort where this hotel is situated is really beautiful, clean and there are some excellent shops.
It's suitable for all ages. We go as family each year. Our kids love it. The kids don't want to go anywhere else. Brilliant pool with guard and loads of sun beds. We highly, highly recommend this hotel.
Very good holiday in all. Definately going back next year.
We have fantastic time in this Hotel!!!
The setting is wonderful with stunning views, in a great location in front of the beach. The service is also perfect - amazingly friendly and helpful staff. The Hotel is Excellent in all respects. Rooms / Food / Service were sublime, weather fantastic. Within minutes of arriving we were relaxed and made to feel so welcome, all the staff were wonderful. Dimitris was always on hand and nothing was too much trouble. Super bar with great cocktails and excellent pool facilities! We'll return! Thanks Travelocity for offering us this hotel!
It was great
We have visited Coral Hotel for our holiday's and we had a great time. The hotel was great with a friendly atmosphere and direct infron of the sea. We was having breakfast by the sea every day and that made the whole day. One of the best choices in the island. Thanks Kostas for the hospitality. We will be back.
Very friendly family hotel
This is a very friendly hotel. The manager was there to meet us and someone took our luggage to our room. It was the early hours of the morning and we needed milk for our little girl who was 2. No problem, they took a carton from the kitchen fridge. Now that's service!! We ate in the hotel restaurant every night and the food was excellent. At night time we never managed to venture away from the hotel complex as the entertainment was fantastic. We totally recommend it to all families.
Coral Hotel excellent
We have just returned home from a brilliant holiday, so we thought that we had to tell everybody about it!
How you review the resort, entirely depends on what you want from your holiday. What we wanted was a relaxing time away from London and work. This is what we got from Roda and Hotel Coral.
The resort, has an English feel, we kept away from the English bars and spent most of the time in the hotel which has a very nice atmosphere.
The Continental breakfast was quite good and the two times we upgraded to a full English between us was more than enough as it included the continental breakfast as well. Most afternoons we had a snack in the Bar and again they were good value. The food was very good and the service excellent.
This Hotel was perfect for us. The staff was excellent, and looked after us very well. The staff makes a big fuss of the kids and keeps them occupied whilst you have a drink or 2!! Hi to the guy's out there and hi to everyone we met out there. Thanks Kostas.
We will definitely be back next year. Recommend it to anyone.
Good Choice
I went to Coral Hotel and stayed there it was fantastic every one was so friendly and its so quiet and lively at the same and it is right next to the sea it's fantastic and i will look forward to going there next year !
Simply the best
One of the best choice for a relaxing holiday in a family enviroment. Check Dimitri, Nikos, Efi. Great time.Thanks Kostas

Our first stop was at a tiny church (Aga Anna) and lovely home and garden in Aleimatades. I hope the pictures do the size of the vegetables justice. The homeowner came out and greeted us and picked a massive head of cabbage. Beautiful. As we climbed further into the mountains and the weather cleared, ...

It was white knuckle time and luckily we had a very good bus driver.

Ranking Journals Following a Matching Model Approach. An Application to Public Economics Journals
Journal rankings based on citation indexes are widely used in the economics field for global top journals. We propose an alternative way to rank journals based on the publishing behavior of top ranked authors. We justify this approach by depicting the scientific publishing market as following a matching process. Compared to the citation approach, the methodology that we propose has comparative advantages in terms of time effort to produce national and subdiscipline rankings, and it makes it possible to compare them with global rankings. It also corrects the impact underestimation that the citation approach tends to produce in new and re-founded journals. We propose an empirical application to the case of public economics journals.

Turn down Bluetooth 'operator' volume
I just got a pair of these QCY QY8 Bluetooth earbuds. There is a volume control on the right earbud, but it seems to only control the volume of your music and ongoing phone calls. The 'operator' volume, however, is always set to the max--I was just listening to music when someone called, and it basically screamed the announcement into my ears. The startup announcement and jingle are also always maximum volume. I don't see anything about how to control this in the instruction manual (which I can't find online, unfortunately). Any tips?

How can I control my iPhone without touching it?
I need to give a demonstration on an iPhone 6+, and need to have full control of the device. Difficulty level: I will not be holding the phone, and will not have a desk surface for a traditional mouse.

Bluetooth transmitter for my TV
I want to be able to watch TV with headphones on. I already have a pair of bluetooth headphones that I use with my tablet at the gym so I thought it would be a good route to go but I can't find much information about adding transmitters to a TV. So far in my researches I've only seen portable battery powered bluetooth transmitters. Are there socket powered transmitters? Are they any good? What should I look for? [more inside]
Connect cell phone to car stereo through usb port
I have a car with a factory stereo which has both an aux jack and a usb input, but no bluetooth. Is there a commercially available device which would connect to an android cell phone via bluetooth and the car stereo via the usb port? My objective is to use the car stereo as the phone speaker. I do not need to stream music from the phone to the stereo. I know there are aux jack devices, but they require periodic recharging. A usb device should be able to operate indefinitely off usb 5V power

Is it possible to stream turntable to Sonos?
I want to stream music from my turntable to a Sonos. Is it possible to stream from a phono preamp's RCA line out to a Sonos device? Bluetooth transmitters allow me to treat RCA line out as a Bluetooth source, and I believe I can receive this as an audio source on my Android phone, but is it possible to then send this signal on to a Sonos? Or, and this begins to look like an unstable kludge, do I need a Bluetooth transmitter from the phono preamp's line out, and then a Bluetooth receiver at the Sonos device's RCA line in?
Recommend me a bluetooth speaker!
I just want a simple to use bluetooth speaker that I can plug-in in whichever room I'm in throughout the house and have my i-Device play music through. I listen to a lot of 80s and 90s, and would like good sound, but my budget is about $100. I just need to keep my toddlers entertained/danced out to tunes, and feel overwhelmed by the choices, so what would you recommend? Thanks!
Bluetooth headphone recommendations for running?

Can I send audio & video to different places, using my Macbook?
I have a pre-2010 Macbook Pro which I use to watch DVDs on my TV, using an HDMI cable with mini display port adaptor. However the audio doesn't go through the cable and has to play through the laptop speakers, which is less than ideal. I'm thinking of buying one of these bluetooth adaptors so that I can play the audio through my stereo system. Has anyone tried to do this at the same time, and will it work?

Pumping Up the Jam at 20 MPH
What is the best way to play music of decent audio quality and volume while riding a bicycle? (not headphones) I'm riding the MS-150 bike ride this year from Duluth to the Twin Cities. I've done it the last few years with a cheap handlebar-attached speaker that runs on AA batteries and barely delivers enough sound for myself to hear, let alone my riding companions. This year I'd like to improve on that, because it really helps to have some sweet tunes while tooling down the road. [more inside]

I'm looking for a bluetooth button. No features. Just. A. Button.
So I used WAZE for my morning commute on my iPhone. It's on my dash and out of easy reach. But sometimes I get an idea for a thing I need to do when I get to the office. Or a text I need to send. So I have to stretch and reach over for the iPhone button to hold it down and dictate it to Siri. Then I thought: What if I just had a button. On me. So that's what I'm looking for. A button I can have close to me that I can press to activate the same function on the iPhone. Not a headset. Or a speakerphone. My car's functionality there works great. Just a button to trigger the thing that's a foot out of easy reach. Now It'd be great if it was like a pin on and didn't look awful so it could be semi decorative. But frankly even if it was big and ugly and I could mount it on the wheel that would work too. So...anyone know any straight button options?

[0001]This application is a U.S. national stage application under 35 U.S.C. §371 of International Application No. PCT/EP2009/053475 filed Mar. 25, 2009, which claims priority to U.S. provisional application 61/040,215 filed Mar. 28, 2008 and to European Patent Application No. 08155793.6 filed May 7, 2008, these applications being incorporated herein by reference in their entirety for all purposes.
[0002]The present invention relates to an SCR system for purifying exhaust gases in NOx.
[0003]With the current evolution in the standards on exhaust emissions from vehicles, devices for pollution control of NOx (or nitrogen oxides) have had to be put in place, especially on trucks (heavy goods vehicles).
[0004]The system used by most vehicle manufacturers for reducing NOx emissions to the required value generally consists in carrying out a selective catalytic reaction with reducing agents such as urea ("Urea SCR" or selective catalytic reduction using ammonia generated in situ in the exhaust gases by decomposition of urea).
[0005]In order to do this, it was necessary to equip the vehicles with a tank containing a urea solution, a device for metering the amount of urea to be injected into the exhaust line and a device for supplying the urea solution from the tank to the injector. Generally, this supply device comprises a pump.
[0006]As it is the case with other fluid injection systems on vehicles, like fuel injection for instance, it is preferable to protect the pump against particles that may be contained in the additive leaving the tank, and to protect the metering device (if metering is not performed directly by the pump and/or injector) and the injector from contamination by wear particles produced by the pump.
[0007]The first problem is classically solved by putting a filter in between the tank and the pump. As to the second one, U.S. Pat. No. 6,125,826 proposes to solve it in the case of a fuel injection system, by inserting a self-washing filter of given geometry between the pump and the metering device. This filter provides a filtered fuel flow to a metering device and a particle containing fuel flow which is returned through a bypass valve to a position upstream of the main filter. Such a system only works with injection systems involving a return line and where the fluid to be injected always circulates in the same direction.
[0008]However, the aqueous urea solutions generally used in SCR (eutectic water/urea solutions with 32.5% by weight of urea) freeze at -11° C. so it is necessary to provide not only a heating device (to liquefy the solution in order to be able to inject in freezing conditions) but also: a purge system in order to be able to periodically purge the lines that convey the urea in order to clear them of the liquid deposits of additives, which are liable to solidify in case of frost.
[0009]An effective way to perform such a purge is described in patent application WO 2006/064028 in the name of the Applicant. It uses a purge device suitable for forcing a purge gas to flow through the entire injection line from the injector to the tank, which consists in: [0010]either a compressed air tank and a purge line equipped with a valve for passing the compressed air through the said line; [0011]or a switch for reversing the flow of the pump (6); [0012]or a 4/2-way valve (14) which, using suitable fittings/lines, produces the same effect.
[0013]The two last alternatives are preferred because they do not involve an additional compressed gas tank. The purge gas of these embodiments consists in fact of engine exhaust gas and/or ambient air which is sucked into the injection line by a suitable device, via the exhaust line. If the pump can operate in two opposing directions and generate reverse flows, this device may be a simple switch that has the effect of reversing the flow of the pump. With standard pumps, the purge device may be a 4/2-way valve, which, in normal mode (additive injection) connects a point downstream of the pump to the injector, and in purge mode, connects the injector to a point upstream of the pump--which has somewhat the same effect as reversing the flow of the pump (the upstream and downstream points being reversed by the valve).
[0014]When the system of WO'028 is working in purge mode, particles that were trapped on the secondary filter (i.e., the one that is generally present on the injector (integrated to it) and/or the additional one as described in U.S. Pat. No. '826 mentioned above) are pulled back into the pump and trapped on the primary filter. Then, when the pump is put in feed mode again, these particles are pulled back into the pump again until they reach the secondary filter etc . . . causing additional wear and damage to the pump.
[0015]The present invention aims at solving that problem by providing an SCR system able to be purged completely (from the injector to the tank) by a gas (for instance the exhaust gases and/or air) and this without cycling particles through the pump respectively in feed and purge mode, said system being effective both with systems implying a return of additive and with returnless systems.
[0016]According to the invention, that problem is solved by putting a particle trap somewhere in between the primary filter and the secondary one.
[0017]Hence, the present invention concerns an SCR system comprising a tank for storing an additive, an injector, a pump for conveying the additive from the tank to the injector via an injection line, a primary filter located on the injection line between the tank and the pump and a secondary filter also located on the injection line but between the pump and the injector, said system further comprising a particle trap located between both filters.
[0018]For a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the invention, reference will now be made to the accompanying drawings in which:
[0019]FIG. 1 shows schematically an SCR system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention; and
[0020]FIG. 2 illustrates a detailed view of a part of the SCR system of FIG. 1.
[0021]As explained above, the role of the particle trap is to trap wear particles and also, built-in debris particles that would otherwise cycle through the pump during its life-time of feed and purge modes.
[0022]The additive concerned in the context of the invention is a reducing agent suitable for reducing the NOx present in the exhaust gases of internal combustion engines. It is advantageously ammonia used directly (which has the associated drawbacks of safety and corrosion), or generated in situ in the exhaust gases using a precursor such as urea (thereby avoiding the above drawbacks). The invention yields good results with urea and, in particular, with aqueous solutions of urea. Eutectic aqueous solutions (comprising 32.5% by weight of urea) are suitable.
[0023]The present invention can be applied to any internal combustion engine liable to generate NOx in its exhaust gases. It may be an engine with or without a fuel return line (that is, a line returning the surplus fuel not consumed by the engine to the fuel tank). It is advantageously applied to diesel engines and, in particular, to vehicle diesel engines and, in a particularly preferred manner, to diesel engines of trucks.
[0024]The system according to the invention comprises at least one tank for storing the additive and at least one injection line for conveying the additive to an exhaust pipe of the engine. This line is equipped at its end with an injector for injecting the additive into the exhaust gases.
[0025]The system according to the invention further comprises a pump for conveying the additive from the additive tank to the injector. This pump may be located inside the additive tank (with the advantage of forming a compact and built-in module with it) or, given the corrosive environment, may be located outside the additive tank. Its constituent materials are preferably selected from corrosion resistant metals (certain grades of stainless steel and anodized aluminium in particular). The use of copper, even for connection elements, is undesirable.
[0026]This pump is generally driven by an electric motor (which is preferably specific to it, i.e., which is only used to drive the pump and exercises no other function). Preferably the pump is a gear pump. It generally comprises a stator and a rotor. It is preferably able to operate in two opposite rotational directions, one generally corresponding to supplying the injection line with liquid and the other generally corresponding to a purge of the injection line.
[0027]The injector of the system according to the invention may either be a so-called "active" injector (that is to say that includes the metering function), or it may be a "passive" injector which merely injects (vaporizes) a quantity of additive metered by another device (like a dosing valve of the pump itself linked to a pressure regulator).
[0028]Usually, the system according to the invention comprises a control unit connected to the injector and/or to the metering device and allowing the required amount of additive to be injected into the exhaust gases (the amount being dependent in particular on the following parameters: emission level and degree of conversion of the NOx; temperature and pressure; engine speed and load, etc. and, optionally, the quality (state of ageing) of the solution).
[0029]In certain cases, the entire additive flow provided by the pump is not injected into the exhaust gases and the uninjected part must then be recirculated. Such an excess flow may be used to cool certain types of "active" injectors (such as that described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,976,475 for example). It may also be necessary for accurate metering control as in the system described in Application FR 06/06425 in the name of the Applicant and which involves the use of a metering valve and a pressure regulator coupled to a passive injector.
[0030]The system of the invention comprises a primary filter located upstream of the pump in order to protect said pump from particles which might be contained in the additive leaving the tank and which are likely to damage or clog it. Any type of filter may be used as primary filter. Preferably, said filter comprises a filter media which may be flat, cylindrical . . . which may be of paper, plastic fibers . . . Preferably, it is a depth media (i.e., a staged arrangement of fibrous material having a given density/porosity) and even more preferably, a gradient density depth media (i.e., depth media of increasing density i.e., decreasing density). A high capacity gradient density depth media type can enhance the ability of the filter element to retain the contaminants in either the forward or purge modes, and is therefore preferred. Such filter media are available under the brand StrataPore® HCGD from Kuss. The conventional laminated paper or woven elements of the preferred micron range can be used but they have less intrinsic ability to retain contaminants like a depth media.
[0031]The primary filter is located "between" the tank and the pump, which is--in the frame of the invention--meant to include the cases where said filter is integrated either to the tank or to the pump. In fact, as described in patent application WO 2007/141312 in the name of the Applicant, said filter and pump may advantageously be integrated in a flange which is immerged in the additive tank. In that case, part of the injection line is also integrated in said flange.
[0032]The system of the invention also comprises a secondary filter located upstream of the injector ("between" the pump and the injector in fact, with the same meaning as above) in order to protect said injector from particles that might have been generated by the part of the injection line located between the primary filter and the injector, including the pump. These might be wear particles or built-in debris particles which came loose when the pump is first primed.
[0033]Most of the commercial injectors include in fact a built-in filter or strainer which may act as the secondary filter of the system according to the invention.
[0034]The key element of the system according to the invention is the presence of a particle trap "between" (always with the same meaning) the primary and the secondary filter. The particle trap of the invention is preferably a device having (at least in one part of it) an appropriate geometry so as to trap particles i.e., to separate them from the liquid additive flowing through it and to prevent them from being pulled back into the liquid flow for instance if said flow is reversed. Preferably, the particle trap is able to trap particles having a diameter of 100 μm or more, even more preferably, of 70 μm or more, even 40 μm or more (because generally, injector strainers meet that specification so that if particles larger than this are trapped, the injector strainer will never be blocked).
[0035]A geometry/shape which gives good results in trapping particles consists in a tortuous path which causes particles to fall out of the flow path while the liquid is still able to flow through said path. According to that embodiment, the particles are trapped in a feature or profile that will not allow them to re-enter the flow path when the normal suction flow is resumed. Hence, such traps are only effective in trapping particles in one flow direction.
[0036]Since as explained above, the problem the invention aims to solve is related to particles which are cycling in the pump i.e., which are pulled back from the secondary filter in purge mode, it is preferred that said trap is initiated in purge mode i.e., trapping the particles which are effectively pulled back from the secondary filter.
[0037]In order to reduce the number of parts to be assembled, the particle trap is preferably integrated to another part of the system. Since the secondary filter is generally part of commercial injectors, the easiest way to perform part integration is to integrate the particle trap to the primary filter (i.e., to mount the particle filter inside or onto the filter, or even: molding it at least partially with a part of the filter--like its cartridge for instance). Besides, since this primary filter is generally provided with a heating element to thaw it in case of frost, integrating the particle trap to the filter will allow said trap to be thawed as well without the recourse to an additional heating element. And finally, since the filter generally has the option of being replaced as a service item, contaminants trapped inside the particle trap could be removed at the same time.
[0038]As explained above, the system of the invention is particularly effective for SCR systems in which a gas (like exhaust gases and/or air) passes through the injector in purge mode so that the entire injection line can be purged. According to the invention, "entire injection line" means not only the actual line but also any element/device that is located thereon and is traversed by the injection flow, like the pump for instance.
[0039]In the case where there is an additive return line, it is advantageous in the context of the invention for it to be purged as well.
[0040]The system according to the invention preferably comprises a device suitable for purging it, which is advantageously: [0041]either a switch for reversing the flow of the pump; [0042]or a 4/2-way valve which, using suitable fittings/lines, produces the same effect.
[0043]As regards the starting of the system in case of frost, it may obviously happen that the tank itself is frozen. To correct this situation, according to an advantageous variant, the system according to the invention comprises a device capable of thawing at least part of the additive tank if necessary and, preferably, as rapidly as possible after starting the engine. Such a device may be a heater (of the resistor type for instance), a bypass of the engine cooling circuit, or a bypass of the hot fuel return (in the case of direct injection engines). Preferably, it is a heater integrated to an immerged flange as described above and even more preferably: to a liquid reservoir integrated to said flange (which traps a small amount of liquid and in which the pump actually sucks the additive).
[0044]The present invention is illustrated in a non-limiting manner by FIGS. 1 & 2. FIG. 1 shows schematically an SCR system according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention and FIG. 2, a detailed view of a part of said system.
[0045]The SCR system depicted in FIG. 1 comprises a urea tank (1) from which urea can be fed to an injector (4) through an injection line (5), using a pump (3) and an integrated primary filter (2)/particle trap (2') unit. The feed and the purge directions are respectively indicated by the upper and lower arrows parallel to the injection line (5).
[0046]Such an SCR system may comprise a return line (6) as optional component (dotted line), of which again the feed and purge directions (which are the same) are pictured by arrows parallel to said line (6).
[0047]Part of the integrated filter/trap unit (2+2') is shown in more details in FIG. 2.
[0048]This unit comprises a cylindrical filter media (2) which is inserted in a casing (C) of which only a part is illustrated (namely the molded end-caps, the cylindrical outer shell not being shown). The filter casing (C) incorporates at least part of the particle trap (2') which is in fact a tortuous path delimitated by features molded in with the end caps of the casing (C). In this figure, two different geometries for said particles trap (2') (one on the left and the other on the right) are given by way of example.
[0049]The urea enters filter media (2) circumferentially (from the outside to the inside of the cylinder) in feed mode and leaves it centrally (which is indicated by the arrow F). In purge mode, it is exactly the opposite: the urea enters centrally as shown by the arrow P, and flows out circumferentially through the cylindrical filter media (2).
[0050]This filter media (2) is such that only particles smaller than 20 μm may pass through the media in either direction. So, when the purge mode is activated, larger particles remain on the interior surface of the media (2) which makes them available to pass back through the pump (2) when the forward flow returns. The particle trap (2') prevents that by causing the particles to fall out and be trapped away from the flow path (indicated by arrows).

The Berkeley County School District is working on plans to build several new schools.
On Nov. 6 Berkeley County voters passed a $198 million bond referendum that will pay for new schools. The Berkeley County School Board recently held a workshop to go over various details of the bond referendum plan.
About 44 percent of the projected renovations will take place in the Goose Creek and Hanahan areas, with about 14 percent in the Summerville area, 14 percent in the Moncks Corner area, 21 percent in the Cross and St. Stephen area and seven percent in Cainhoy and Daniel Island, according to a district presentation.
New schools will be built at Tanner Planation, Cainhoy, Foxbank and Sheep Island Road.
Construction of the schools is expected to take 18 months for each school after the design and bidding processes, which will take a projected eight to 10 months. The completion goal for the Sheep Island elementary school is August 2014 or 2015; for the Clements Ferry high school August 2016; for the Tanner Planation elementary school August 2015; for Foxbank elementary school August 2017. No date has been set for the Clements Ferry elementary and middle school.
Major renovations in the Goose Creek area will take place at Goose Creek High School, Stratford High School, Goose Creek Primary, Marrington Elementary and Middle, Sedgefield Intermediate, Boulder Bluff Elementary, Westview Middle, Devon Forest Elementary and Howe Hall Elementary.
Additions at GCHS will likely take 18 months and are expected to be complete in February 2016. The 12-month renovation process at SHS is expected to be complete in February 2015. The eight-month renovation at Marrington Middle is expected to be complete in January 2016. The six-month process at Cross High is expected to be complete in May 2015.
The current goals are based on minimal information and will likely change and be refined as design and construction processes progress, according to the presentation.
The projections do not take into account unforeseen items such as wetlands, poor soils, agency approval delays, environmental items, utility availability material or labor shortages and so on.
The school system will select architects, engineers and contractors then participate in the design and construction processes. The district will hold community meetings when appropriate.
Community representatives involved in some of the planning include:
Jane Pulling, Chad Vail, John Matthews, of the Yes4Schools Committe
TheRev. Barnes, the Rev. Harkness, and the Rev. Love of AME Ministerial Association

Zinaida Evgenievna Serebriakova
Biography from the Archives of askART
Zinaida Yevgenyevna Serebriakova (née Lanceray) was among the first female Russian painters of distinction.
Zinaida Serebriakova was born on the estate of Neskuchnoye near Kharkov (now Kharkiv, Ukraine) into one of Russia's most refined and artistic families.
She belonged to the artistic Benois family. Her grandfather, Nicholas Benois, was a famous architect, chairman of the Society of Architects and member of the Russian Academy of Science. Her uncle, Alexandre Benois, was a famous painter, founder of the Mir iskusstva art group. Her father, Yevgeny Nikolayevich Lanceray, was a well-known sculptor, and her mother, who was Alexandre Benois' sister, was good at drawing. One of Zinaida's brothers, Nikolay Yevgenyevich Lanceray, was a talented architect, and her other brother, Yevgeny Yevgenyevich Lanceray, had an important place in Russian and Soviet art as a master of monumental painting and graphic art. The Russian-English actor and writer Peter Ustinov was also related to her.
In 1900 she graduated from a women's gymnasium (equivalent to grammar school or high school), and entered the art school founded by Princess M. K. Tenisheva. She studied under Repin in 1901, and under portrait artist Braz between 1903 and 1905. Between 1902-1903 she spent time in Italy, and from 1905-1906 she studied at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière in Paris.
In 1905, Zinaida Lanceray married her first cousin, Boris Serebriakov, the son of Evgenyi's sister, and took his surname. Serebriakov went on to become a railroad engineer.
From her youth onwards, Zinaida Serebriakova strove to express her love of the world and to show its beauty. Her earliest works,
Country Girl
(1906, Russian Museum) and
Orchard in Bloom
(1908, private collection), speak eloquently of this search, and of her acute awareness of the beauty of the Russian land and its people. These works are études done from nature, and though she was young at the time, her extraordinary talent, confidence and boldness were apparent.
Broad public recognition came with Serebriakova's self-portrait
At the Dressing-Table
(1909, Tretyakov Gallery), first shown at a large exhibition mounted by the Union of Russian Artists in 1910. The self-portrait was followed by
Girl Bathing
(1911, Russian Museum), a portrait of Ye.K. Lanceray (1911, private collection), and a portrait of the artist's mother Yekaterina Lanceray (1912, Russian Museum), already mature works, strict in composition.
She joined the Mir iskusstva movement in 1911, but stood out from the other members of the group because of her preference for popular themes and because of the harmony, plasticity and generalized nature of her paintings.
In 1914-1917, Zinaida Serebriakova was in her prime. During these years she produced a series of pictures on the theme of Russian rural life, the work of the peasants and the Russian countryside which was so dear to her heart:
(1914-1915, Russian Museum),
Sleeping Peasant Girl
(private collection).
The most important of these works was
Bleaching Cloth
(1917, Tretyakov Gallery), which revealed Zinaida Serebriakova's striking talent as a monumental artist. The figures of the peasant women, portrayed against the background of the sky, gain majesty and power by virtue of the low horizon.
When in 1916 Alexander Benois was commissioned to decorate the Kazan Railway Station (see) in Moscow, he invited Yevgeny Lanceray, Boris Kustodiev, Mstislav Dobuzhinsky, and Zinaida Serebriakova to help him. Serebriakova took on the theme of the Orient: India, Japan, Turkey, and Siam are represented allegorically in the form of beautiful women. At the same time she began compositions on subjects from classical mythology, but these remained unfinished.
At the outbreak of the October Revolution in 1917, Serebriakova was at her family estate of Neskuchnoye, and suddenly her whole life changed. In 1919 her husband Boris died of typhus contracted in Bolshevik jails. She was left without any income, responsible for her four children and her sick mother. All the reserves of Neskuchnoye had been plundered, so the family suffered from hunger. She had to give up oil painting in favour of the less expensive techniques of charcoal and pencil. This was the time of her most tragic painting,
House of Cards
, which depicts her four orphaned children.
She did not want to switch to the futurist style popular in the art of the early Soviet period, nor paint portraits of commissars, but she found some work at the Kharkov Archaeological Museum, where she made pencil drawings of the exhibits. In December 1920 she moved to her grandfather's apartment in Petrograd. After the October Revolution, inhabitants of private apartments were forced to share them with additional inhabitants, but Serebriakova was lucky - she was quartered with artists from the Moscow Art Theatre. Thus, Serebriakova's work during this period focuses on theatre life. Also around this time, Serebriakova's daughter, Tatiana, entered the academy of ballet, and Serebriakova created a series of pastels on the Mariinsky Theater.
In the autumn of 1924, Serebriakova went to Paris, having received a commission for a large decorative mural. On finishing this work, she intended to return to the Soviet Union, where her mother and the four children remained. However, she was not able to return, and although she was able to bring her younger children, Alexandre and Catherine, to Paris in 1926 and 1928 respectively, she could not do the same for her two older children, Evgenyi and Tatiana, and did not see them again for many years.
After this, Zinaida Serebriakova traveled a great deal. In 1928 and 1930 she traveled to Africa, visiting Morocco. She was fascinated by the landscapes of northern Africa and painted the Atlas mountains, as well as Arab women and Africans in ethnic clothing. She also painted a cycle devoted to Breton fishermen. The salient feature of her later landscapes and portraits is the artist's own personality — her love of beauty, whether in nature or in people.
In 1947, Serebriakova at last took French citizenship, and it was not until Khruschev's Thaw that the Soviet Government allowed her to resume contact with her family in the Soviet Union. In 1960, after 36 years of forced separation, her older daughter, Tatiana (Tata), was finally allowed to visit her. At this time, Tatiana was also working as an artist, painting scenery for the Moscow Art Theatre.
Zinaida Serebriakova's works were finally exhibited in the Soviet Union in 1966, in Moscow, Leningrad, and Kiev, to great acclaim. Her albums sold by the millions, and she was compared to Botticelli and Renoir. However, although she sent about 200 of her works to be shown in the Soviet Union, the bulk of her work remains in France today.
Zinaida Serebriakova died in Paris on September 19, 1967, at the age of 82. She is buried in Paris, at the Russian cemetery at Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois.

Biography from the Archives of askART
Zinaida Serebriakova came from a talented artistic family, her father being the sculptor Evgeny Lanceray and her uncle the Ballets Russes designer Alexander Benois. She began to draw at a very early age selecting simple subjects from daily life surrounding her, such as her family and the landscape in her native village of Neskuchnoye. She first came to prominence in 1910 with the exhibition of her celebrated self portrait
Woman at the Mirror
(State Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow).
After emigrating to Paris in the 1920s, she earned a living painting society portraits, but spent much of her free time exploring subjects she had first discovered in Russia. She continued to paint her children into adulthood, including affectionate studies of her daughters, Catherine and Tatiana, often posing in the nude. She also painted other female models, reclining in her studio with patterned wraps and decorative drapes. Such nude studies were informal, often highly erotic, characterised by a spontaneous, but firm handling of line.
Her daughter Catherine accounts for the success of her mother's nude studies, probably the most immediate and intimate images of the female body in Russian art. She writes "The female nude was mother's favourite subject. While she was in Russia young peasant women would pose for her. In Paris her friends would come over to her studio, drink a cup of tea, then they would stay and pose for her. They were not the professional models that you might find in Montparnasse and maybe this is the reason why they are so natural and graceful."
