A friend came and told about bidding.
It is interesting to me that he was with Clover start well below the lower estimate. A bargain, but the funniest thing, that when I describe the buyer-Muscovite-I recognized him. Well-known gallerist with a recognizable appearance ... A frequent visitor to the Salon him know.
And so, all as bychno. The icons have a string novodelny (roughly novodelny) object. Malyutin-self-portrait, went for nedoroho, for 70 000 kroons.
In the hall there were about 30-40, one-third of us.
A friend brought his subject, it is important.
