Oh-oh-oh!
I'm afraid that at the auction could go and 100 pounds ...
I do not recommend such experiments - wear then it is better.

Clara N. Striganova - the wife of the Soviet correspondent in France at that time, they were friends with Zhdanov . Here's a link to a court : http://bazazakonov.ru/doc/?ID=3199261

It mentions other paintings Zhdanov.

Well this is just the demigods in those days. :)

And you yourself , it is not related to the line - you see, and that will give a provenance . :)

And to you, then, I'm sorry, what's the matter?

No, I'm not one of them have a direct relationship, but this picture got out of hand Striganova . Striganova , incidentally, had been friends with Picasso, and they had some good of his work , I remember the portrait of Jacqueline, but it was about 10 years ago. I wonder where they went , in the record of this word. Although it is possible that this is the picture , which is named in "The Stranger ."

Personally, I - no.

Just take an ordinary buyer pleasant thing "out of the hands of the approximate".
A nicer than him, the better the price ...
