According to the descendants of the prince, Antakolsky made unspecified number of busts

Descendants apparently also Galitsyn? Good luck to them ..
I, in principle anyway. Can you believe that the man was on famili Galitsyn, you can even utveozhdat that there Prince Raman.
 Just to support the conversation, I can say about some elements of fantasy themes:
1. Princes (and Counts) Galitsin not and never has been. (Ramanovyh, too).
 Just look, for example "A list of award-winning maternity leave and persons of the Russian Empire. Publication of the Department of the Governing Senate Heraldry " or
"List of princely families" on the site Heraldry House of Romanov .

  In the old Golitsyn were Catholic monks and priests, Catholics. But they did not name his mangled and called "Golitsyn"
2. Also, does not exist examination TG 2000 with two signatures for 180 rubles.

10 years ago, in the Tretyakov Gallery said that such a bust Antokol's'kogo can cost thousands of 300 green, but it is supposedly on vskidku, but the owners then refused to sell it.

Not now, not 10 years so successful, or more generally, the assessment in the Tretyakov Gallery is impossible ...
 Although, IMHO, if this bust is really a genuine work of M. Antokolsky, the 200-300 thousand dollars is quite a real care in the auction.
