Thank you Frosenka , had very interesting .
I have Schiele most like landscapes . In figrah hard for me to take some fairly monotonous hysteria in it I see something artificial . And in the landscapes of this strange silence and tranquility , peacefulness bleak ( but it is very difficult to describe in words ) .
Young - it is difficult to judge the photos are not very well seen , but really surprising abundance of abstraction . In general, these young , even very civilized and combed >

Thank you very precisely defined - combed and civilized . "
Schiele's figures , yes, almost hysterical , landscapes calmer , but I like both , it all works brilliant , pity that completely inaccessible . For a drawing for Art Austria, a small , asked for 100 thousand, which is two times as expensive Klimt , but rightly so .
There are still two exhibitions . Continue?

Every time you view works from this collection are now afraid not to see any of the works , otsuzhennyh heirs . It is a holistic and a fine collection should not fall victim to let him and the righteous , but still only commercial legal battles .

Well before I write , and in the news :

Viennese Leopold Museum , founded the famous art collector Rudolf Leopold and now headed by his son Ditardom , to be auctioned off the outstanding work of Egon Schiele . The picture " House of the colorful clothes . Suburban II » will appear at Sotheby's on June 22 this year with the estimate 36-50 million dollars . Museum sells such an important product of his rich collection of works by Schiele to get the funds to compensate the heirs of the former owner of another Austrian expressionist painting - " Portrait of a Valley ».

Yet it's pure robbery, but not restitution, because a year ago wrote:

At the end of August painting by Egon Schiele's "Portrait of a Valley," was arrested in New York in 1998, will be able to see again at home. Claim of heirs of the former owner of the paintings galeristka Lea Bondi Jerooy - whose "Portrait of the Valley" was confiscated by the Nazis and eventually found himself in Vienna's Leopold Museum - over pretrial agreement: the plaintiffs will be paid $ 19 million, and the picture remain the property of Leopold Foundation.

"Portrait of a Valley" (1912) will be included in the modern history of art as a source of "shock Schiele" - so named in the press the panic gripping the museum world after his arrest in 1998, exported for temporary exhibition in the Museum of Modern Art in New York paintings.

Issued by Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau order to one day destroy the entire system of international cultural relations - is now no government guarantee of the return of museum items are not protected from lawsuits such as this.

Stolen Nazi art began to look at their collections of museums around the world. And I must say, have succeeded in this: particularly filthy in the process of deliberate failure to return to Nazi victims or their heirs were France, Austria and the Netherlands, a significant amount of the disputed items have settled in the U.S..

To resolve the dispute over the very "Portrait of a Valley" took 12 years. Great Austrian collector Rudolf Leopold, whose meeting a lot of "stolen art" was categorically against the return values ​​- he, being quite a bona fide purchaser was willing to pay for them again. Was willing to pay it, and immediately after the arrest of the picture - then it was about $ 2 million, however, representatives of the Austrian Government to fund Leopold delayed this decision and only the cost of lawyers over the past decade has grown to $ 4 million

In the meantime, there are disputes about the debt repayment, a portrait of the artist's girlfriend, Valerie (Wali) Noytsil began its regular public life: after a 12-year prison painting left the warehouse in Queens, it is now exhibited in the Museum of Jewish Heritage in New York, and from 23 August its promise to put on a special show at the Museum Ludwig.
