Here is a new remarkable story of 60-x:


        "Near the anniversary of the DA Shmarinov, then chairman of Moschus, and Olga Troskino with the sculptor Yuri Alexandrov, clutching a large white linen tablecloth and a box just appeared in the Union of colored pens, by car sculptor began to go round the Moscow artists, inviting them to sign and best of all - that a draw.

      Sergey has Konenkova cloth have more in the hallway of the museum-apartment and took away somewhere in the bowels, and then returned - with the royal autograph.
      Corinne, seeing the cloth, sat down to do sketches, but then he opened his own monograph, and something out redrawn.
      Pavel Varfolomeyevich Kuznetsov (he already was under 90) was delighted as a child, a colored marker. He took his Baltic landscape and with a trembling hand began to painstakingly copy it. Stood behind him Troskino and Alexandrov, curiously watched as the master, carefully peering into the landscape, on the tablecloth to reproduce something similar enough, or rather do not like, but no less beautiful.

     So they traveled the floor of Moscow.
     Tablecloth, I think, has not disappeared, and probably kept in the family Shmarinov. I think the most spectacular in it - this picture Tischler. It seems he was the only one who managed to truly masterly use of this stupid stuff. Seeing without a moment's hesitation, Tyshler created a masterpiece on the tablecloth, Olga Troskino freed from under the skirts of her white blouse and asked the master to paint something and her memory. Tyshler not resist, drew a column with Cupid and arrows. Here and tormented by envy Alexandrov could not resist, and asked to paint his shirt. But Tyshler refused, saying that his wife can go and think that hit the mad house.

      Now these cloths are no longer as before - from the time of Pushkin - there were many, and the young lady carefully embroidered in silk on the known or favorite autographs. "
