no masterpiece, as in the autumn pre-demonstrations, alas, there was no

I wrote correctly. At All pre-fall was a huge number of masterpieces, but here they did not encounter any.

And I really liked Brodsky, a ... quite unusual, and market his work rarely appears. Although the estimate is too harsh - 300-500 thousand.
And amused that the little Aivazovsky threw out of the frame. Is undignified.
A shabby cat Giacometti, along with Basquiat - is somehow too. To my mind.

Tu suggested to me why in the diptych Grigorieva, in the cut scene from the cook different color jackets.

"Cooking pancakes Crepes Suzette" ($ 500-700 thousand). The picture depicts the owner of an Italian restaurant "At Giovanni" in New York. The artist gave the painting by Giovanni - but the canvas was a large and a small restaurant. And then the artist cut the picture into two parts. The result was a small portrait by Italian Giovanni with sad eyes and a horizontal piece with kerosene lamps, which are fried pancakes, and the hands restaurateur (his black clothes Grigoriev repainted in red). This piece of long served as a restaurant advertising and was reproduced on the menu, plates and matchboxes.

But! Why people /cook in different jackets?

Or maybe just a cook - in cooking, and the client, carefully watching - in anticipation of the most pancakes
And the jacket does not have to repaint
