One of the most famous cases of forgery in the collection Costakis happened that way.
One day in one of the capital's kommissionok hit film "Three Oranges" hands Picasso (the title of this picture he recalls George Dionisovich). This work is very pleased Kostakis and decided to buy it and got a verbal agreement from the employee store. Unfortunately, it was ahead of Ilya Ehrenburg. When Kostakis returned to the store and when he heard about took place amid very upset. At the same time, there came a great connoisseur of art Toskin Aivazovsky. He began to pat GDK, saying: "Do not worry you so, man. It was not a real Picasso. I know where and who is the original. The widow Vvedensky. There is 100%original. "
Later, Kostakis met with the widow of Vvedensky, which confirm the authenticity said that her husband had bought the painting from the artist Nicholas Glushchenko, a family friend. Kostakis called Glushchenko to Kiev and confirmed the originality and the origin of the picture. Glushchenko no secret of painting sold Vvedensky, and he got it as a gift from Picasso himself.
After a few days to visit G.D.K came Robert Falk. He was the picture looked suspicious. He could not say exactly who the author of this stuff, but a few days Falk sent his new publication from the French magazine. In the same magazine were reproductions of the artist (from the memoirs of G.D.K) Delacerne. One of his works is very reminiscent of the one that started nervously disturb family Kostakis. With a very detailed study of the area signed by Picasso, George D. discovered faint letters DE. And after the X-ray signature by Picasso's signature appeared copies - Delacerne. During the regular exhibitions of Glushchenko in Moscow, Kostakis personally went to Nikolai Petrovich and made all thought of him. (A few lines nenormaivnogo lexicon decided not to quote). Glushchenko asked not to make noise, and decided to compensate the hitch that will offer original works of Chagall, Kandinsky, etc. Of course, this did not happen, and decided to keep the fraud Kostakis at home, and Glushchenko was dropped from the list of friends for ever.
