I beg you!

If tandem and made a mistake in the assessment, then very little!
Horses - a very high demand issue, but the old woman (even Repin) - no!

But first you need to make an examination, or at least look at the picture in person, and then to talk about the cost.

Unfortunately for the owner, but to the creation of Russian animal painter Peter Sokolov, this picture has nothing to do

Peter Sokolov - an outstanding draftsman and watercolorist, master large and complex compositions, illustrations for the works of Gogol and Turgenev.
His contemporary, Nicholas Karazin indicates that Sokolov in the process of making hundreds of sketches of various scenes, groups of people and horses. This strict discipline in working with the kind of figure, which is the basis of all art, is explained by a masterly picture of any movement, angle, fixing the correctness of details that we see in the works of Peter Sokolov.
From the book by K. Kravchenko Peter Sokolov.
By the way, Sokolov in 1887, was a personal exhibition in OPH, which enjoyed tremendous success. Now if there was shown a portrait, it would have lost many Sokolov their customers. But in his signature (in shape) is really very simple, as used by many unscrupulous comrades on hand. On the pre-revolutionary art forgeries and Sverchkova Sokolov wrote in his memoirs, the famous horseman and collector Frenkel Butovich. Anyway, this picture is not drawn on any of Sokolov's painting, nor in the knowledge of the subject, ie, horse.

About forgeries of works by Ivan Aivazovsky knows just lazy , but that's no reason to reject the threshold of anything that pays the examination, allegedly as he wrote . This is the so-called " memoirs " of the famous horse-breeder and collector of Frenkel Butovich "as an example" deployed " the answer is not in favor of the authorship of PP Sokolov .
Pro " does not pull ," even talk funny - " killer " in its "Expand " argument, a very worthy lovers peremptory verdicts !
The owner of the picture should contact the person who would be specifically expressed and arguments for or against. In the meantime , you can only talk about the alleged authorship of the PP Sokolov, and no more than what I wrote above.
