The ruins of the temple''VD Polenov
 

Wood, maslo.30 ,2 - 20, 9sm.1982 year.

yak, why should you so aspire to sell your masterpieces? It is better to organize the gallery as the Tretyakov. Keep them visitors to it for free (if you have an aid in the textile business), then will the state. Became famous for ages!

Tretyakov bequeathed Moscow.

I know, but I do not know of any state yak. Maybe he does not want to bequeath to Moscow.

 Moscow, perhaps, is not an integral and essential part of the state?

It depends on what.

And the picture itself, incidentally, is not bad. A bit like here on this (incidentally, this was written in the years 1892-94., Ie, if we believe the date on the painting under discussion, as much as 10 years later it):

Question to the testator. He seems, was not aware of such subtleties, unlike you.

Do not state museums, all stolen, and in the best case it will rot in zapastnikah ..

I agree, but probably need more expertise .. or in Kiev or in Moscow.

Yeah, sell Polenova on "polenovskim" prices with Kharkiv expertise will be difficult.

Yeah, an alternative third-YaKOVskuyu. :) "All luck!

The question is not understood ... :confused: Just in case, remind Moscow - the capital of Russia!

No special subtleties do not need to know in order to understand that willing to Moscow, to bequeath to the state.
