Yes, the auction price.
But you understand that when the market is thrown a lot of great things, the prices do not rise high. And it was after the war.
Being once in Moscow, in the house-museum of Aleksei Tolstoy, I heard the story of an art that, as Tolstoy had bought furniture from the Mikhailovsky Castle Paul I.
In America, the ship was sent to the property of the imperial and grand palaces. So, what is not sold in America, returned to Russia and settled on some skladah.A back a lot of furniture to break during transport.
Tolstoy sought out these stores and bought out and the furniture and some paintings.
Furniture personally restored. And now it is in his office.
Who wants to see - please! Museum of Alexei Tolstoy. Near the mansion Ryabushinsky, slightly to the left.
So it was in those early 20-ies. Years and years of acrimonious collapse.
And what happens to a museum today?
Today's cultural officials simply sold the house-museum.
