Hereditary feuds for the collection of icons of Michael de Bouar lead to a new trial?

At the State Museum-Exhibition Center "ROSIZO" police officers found and arrested the 52 icons from the collection of Michael de Bouar. 75 more icons - the most valuable part of the collection de Bouar late - at the beginning of this year, were arrested at the Pushkin Museum. Now the objects of ancient art have to go three children de Bouar and his last wife, Tatiana, a former nurse collector, a marriage which was concluded a few days before Michael's death. Penultimate wife love Elizavetino collector, however, still hopes to appeal the decision. Who will see the icons and whether their audience, understood the "MK".

This inheritance dispute two years ago. It started with a scandal at the Museum "Tsarina", where 192 were the icons after the show. Love Elizavetino exported meeting a few months after the death of her ex-husband. She had every right to do, in fact, according to the documents, it is also there and gave her. However, Tatiana de Bouar accused of kidnapping love works. Since then, 75 icons Elizavetino managed to give the Pushkin Museum, and the rest hidden. As a result, Presnensky court found unlawful act of giving.

- I will not give up, the wording of the court decision is absurd - says Elizavetino. "MK" caught it right at the cemetery where buried, her former husband. - It's like if I had recognized the man, or allowing the object! Savagery ... I'll give necessarily appeal.

Love Elizavetino wanted to achieve a private museum where the collection was exhibited controversial icons. Or otherwise make available icons for a wide audience. Actually, for this purpose and it was giving the icon the Pushkin Museum. And what they want heirs de Bouar?

- They want to see the collection was indivisible - said "MK" lawyer Tatiana de Bouar and his children, Ruslan Koblev. - They will put the icon in museums, in the same Pushkin, perhaps. Michael de Bouar bequeathed to the collection is indivisible. And what's the first thing done Elizavetino? Divided, and gave her a part in the Pushkin Museum Pushkin!

- Giving the State collection, as trying to make Elizavetino, the heirs are not going?

- No. But fret saw her, as on every corner Elizavetino says, they are not collected.

But going to accuse Elizavetino that it illegally holds the icons. 65 icons are still in some stores of the capital. And the heirs want to attract Elizavetino prosecuted for false accusation. She has repeatedly stated that part of the icons were trying to sell abroad. Total Michael de Bouar over 30 years of collecting has collected approximately 600 iconic images. The court questioned only two hundred.

- We have been carefully studied the documents and concluded that Love Elizavetino would have to continue to manage the collection, which, in fact, she has done during the life of her husband - says the former head of Rosokhrankultura Viktor Petrakov. - It provided as the owner of the icon to exhibition, with the knowledge of Michael Paton. Elizavetino going to give the best of the Pushkin Museum. Pushkin and presented. Let the court decided differently. But her actions underscore the desire to preserve icons and Lubov memory of the collector. A part of the icons, the rest from the heirs, suddenly appeared in a Western auctions.

History confusing, and the lumen it is not visible. But what is surprising - the controversial 192 icons are estimated at $ 30 million. There is evidence that many influential collectors have already turned their attention to the icons of the late de Bouar. In the antique circles it is rumored that one of the largest collectors of Michael Perchenko going to make the case to hand to help is not particularly versed in the art market successors to sell the icon.

But the most sensible position, which is shared by many - to leave the collection to Russia and to the public. Material: Maria Moskvicheva
