Contribution to the history of forgery. Kustodiyev by an unknown artist

Unfortunately the person who asked to remove the picture from the wall, I was not familiar. Yes, and Vekselberg's face, I did not know before.
It is now his picture flashed on the pages of the press and the Internet.
Obviously people were sent to make this purchase. Perhaps that was viewed by other people who also traded for this work.
In general, it was a minor incident prior to the sale. But many in the hall then pay attention to this. Since the tone of the people asked to remove work from the wall was very commanding. We can say that it was mandative tone.
I remember back in the hall stood a fake bronze sculpture A. Archipenko
and two vases with Novodel used H-I. These items were a simple way.
In the catalog they were listed. But for some reason they put in the hall. Maul suddenly a wealthy man interested.
This Tithengauzen still the rogue! I have twice had a conflict with them.
