Nalbandian
 

Rybolovlev's daughter bought a penthouse in New York for $ 88 million (a record price), and someone in May paid nearly $ 87 million for a painting by Mark Rothko (also a record price.)
This I mean, that's all relative.
People are driven to - "I want to", and you can only admire those who do it coincides with the possibilities.

There are consumer goods, and there are luxury items (real estate, art, etc.).
Psychology deals completely different.

Was sold to the crisis for 2.2 million RUR ( 94,160 USD).
Deliverers with his unsold between two BP run, sit up for auction and there, there.
And, by the way, not only for us , this situation can be seen with things Nalbandian and there: if Sothebys, e to sell the lot, have a picture on Macdougall nizskim with more than the estimate .

Well, what can I say ? It turns out ( and repeatedly confirmed in these pages ), not only "God - in the details" , but someone else is present in them . Repin once chided Aivazovsky that figure in his painting illuminated by the sun from both sides. Aivazovsky smiled and said : " What a pedant you , Ilya Yefimovich! "

If you take a brand, then there was another work, the brand is not less than Nalbandian is Yablonskaya with good quality picture of the girl. If I am not mistaken this is her first appearance at the auction, or the second is not pomnyu.Na our auctions is rare, but it is the Ukrainian frequent guest, but almost all of her works have been studies or grafika.Takogo size of the finished work, I do not remember . With a bouquet of Nalbandian's no comparison, the sky and zemlya.Ya want to say that if a lot of work Nalbandian in the market, meter Yablonska not seen the last 5-6 years at auction, te it is not there. If Nalbandian went for $ 270,000 in excess of assessment, Yablonskaya went for $ 18,000 below assessment. I still see it, if in the first case, the excess of manipulation, in the second case for the fall. My conclusion, for myself of course, that is also a game Yablonska understatement. Playing for the future.
The Armenian diaspora is not an influential player in the art market. Armenian authors are not buying Armenians. I heard unofficially that any collection is not considered complete if there is not an Armenian. I do not know whether this is so, but the fact that Armenians are not buying it for sure.
I would not hang it, would not even consider such an option.

brand name
 

Somehow all categorical, even unnecessary. Brand brand - are different , otherwise all cost the same. If the market says that n- t Nalbandian is now so much, but a portrait Yablonska - as it means that the way it is .
Offended by the market? See this intrigues " world behind the scenes "?
How do you phrase " Russian authors do not buy Russian "?
In the last year sold an Armenian HT N. Barsamova ( Barsamian ). Until now, sorry . This year, he asked if there was more. At the last Gelos sell another HT Barsamova , perhaps he bought.
HT Nalbandian I would have you do not hang because it would hang at home. On " no accounting for tastes " is a stupid anecdote : Armenians more than the Georgians ! What ? What Georgians ...

from the seller :
On November 25 of this year by Macdougall, e exhibited much seven of things in oil on canvas T. Yablonska
- Lots 374 - 380 with the estimate from 3000 - 5000 GBP 5000 - 7000 GBP.
If they sell - I do not know , in Macdougall painting at this time nevazhnetski left.

First is the work of 96-97 years , in the second of this size is not there, it is in the third last years of the artist, and the big question Yablonskaya it? So repeat this size, these years Yablonska just not on the market .

Someone bought the well, then.

Yablonskaya
 

In Kiev, opened the Museum of Modern Ukrainian Art ( patron Tsyupko ), maybe they have bought. In the work of TN Yablonska have two periods (I know superficially) - social realism and the fact that it was after the "thaw"
that's where - "the land and the sky ." Portrait - " Serov " only fingers his daughter much longer , not at night will be told.

Yes, it's true you have noticed, as if the hand is not there , it is distracting, but do not forget a thing 50s, and she has more than half a century. So if you look closely, there is even a different palette , I think the hand is simply bad restored.

Socialist Realism
 

To "socialist realism" is not seen as something dirty, placing little thing from my collection (currently n /x).

And I think that " portrait of her daughter " T. Yablonska with hands all nrmalno.
