<! - ~ 1 ~ -> LOT number 5 withdrawn from the auction.

Once again, well done , good selection .. and the prices are quite real . ( Like lots № 178,198.199,201,202,203,209,218,219,222,224)
If you can write a few words on the division of DPI.
With best regards and wishes a successful auction.

At the pre-show " Russian Seasons " exhibited work Aivazovsky " Moonlight ." This painting seascape already sold at this auction in 2011 GG It seems that the price of this painting is pretty overpriced. In 2007, Sotheby's sold this landscape with an estimate of 44 000 - 54 000. Such a modest price due to the fact that, as noted in the catalog has been carried out extensive restoration . ( According obschepriprinyatomu opinion, if the artist at work in the restoration was recorded 30%of the original layer , the authorship is questioned . Restoration is no doubt the authorship only if the loss occurred in non-critical areas - on the edges against the background without affecting the main the song. )
Apparently, when the resale of this " conventional wisdom " forgotten and the work was sold to Stockholms Auktionsverk, 02.10.2008g . Lot 32. Estimate $ 268-338 thousand Sold : $ 479,600 later in the " Russian Seasons " in 2011 for $ 850,000 , and in May of this year, put up for auction with an estimate of 700 000 - 900 000

Very ineteresno , except that the first auction we held only in 2010 , and this work has never before exhibited at our auctions.
