Admin, Alexander, this kind of information (art dealers, collectors, investors), are interested only with the purchase of rare books.
The fact that in Russia during the Soviet era was transferred to the museums (the heirs), usually collecting dust in the vaults, stolen, museums unichtozhaetsya.Frantsuzskie little different from ours, it's better to sell and children to ensure the future (unless someone in the footsteps of the collector is not went.)
Yes, if the collection is sold whole, certainly more expensive, but here we see such a volume that it is better to sell the parts.

I think you still remember this story Rene Guerra: "I, as his executor, the will of the deceased friend, and through the Russian embassy in Paris sent the picture in the USSR in 1975. And what do you think: they are still gathering dust in the vaults! 15 years lay in the basement of the embassy, the remaining 15 years - in the cellars of the Tretyakov Gallery. Not so long ago, the representative of the Tretyakov Gallery, contacted me with the suggestion that I gave money to the frame for the paintings, then canvas Sarsuns will be shown to the people. But I found it, sorry, rudeness. The artist presents his paintings worth tens of millions of dollars, and the state for 30 years can not find the money to frame them! "
