I was in the hall during the bidding process. Bidding for Nesterova began in the area of 300 thousand, was somewhat willing to buy it, trade ceased in the area of 370 thousand, and this figure could not reach to the reserves, so the picture is not selling out. I know that at the end of the auction there were some suggestions about buying this thing for less money.
Over Brodsky with numbers 300 thousand left two soldiers, and they caught up with the price to exorbitant.
Of course, if we talk about the level of painting, then Nesterov above, however, I can understand the opposite view. But if the Nesterov for 600 thousand dollars completely liquid, the Brodsky sell for the same 1.5 million dollars will be very difficult.
