Tselkov weather does not, Gerasimov (academician of Socialist Realism) also went over 340 TW (work is average)

Well, that Gerasimov showed record. This is an important sale for socialist realism. But we must understand that this is a one-time sale, it is difficult to talk about the result of systematic. Because this can not make global conclusions, otherwise will have to "put a cross on Brodsky for the fact that he is not sold at all. A Tselkov, for example, sold a dozen works at good prices.

This is an important sale for socialist realism. But we must realize that this is a one-off sale,

I totally agree (that is an important sale for collectors of socialist realism), but this is not one-off sale of Soviet artists, this year there were many interesting results ...
Modern art to me as you like, but agree prices too high in times, the more-petrodollars away from the market ... now and will be the real price of this painting.
