By Titian did not gather: (Austrians won by Klimt is not collected. In addition there is a price market distortions - Titian is cheaper, for example, Pollock and other first names in the abstract expressionism. But you are right that Russia has such a formulation issue on private property until the present difficult - instead of money would have found the arguments poubeditelnee.

  It is expensive, but it is not etom.Zdes discussed the right of private ownership of a work of art, and in England it is in the first place ..
In Russia you can buy a lot, but no display .. so the market of antiques, paintings there .. All neftidollary at auction in London flock, and here we are trying to Russia's law on "Import export of cultural values" to discuss .. funny.
There are laws adopted in the EU (they can be taken as a basis), why reinvent the wheel is unclear, although there is understandable for corrupt officials (from min.kultury), customs, Russia's law simply perfect, pockets stuffed with dozens mln.ue.ne one year .
And for the normal western collectors a lot of problems, so the whole art business located in the U.S., London, Paris ..

Richard Dietz: "liberalizing law, reduce restrictions on exports"
"...... In my view, there are several reasons why the investment potential of Russian art is not disclosed in full. One of them - lack of a clear system of rules governing the export of art treasures from the country. The result is a substantial difference in their value within the country and abroad. Because of export restrictions on Russian art can not truly become part of the world market. liberalizing laws, reduce restrictions on exports - and Russian art will be much more expensive. This it would be good both for artists and for dealers and collectors ...."
