I unfortunately still can not connect to my English friends , with whom , as I recall, we discussed this once - the first - thing. He is resting somewhere .

picture appeared first in the Baltics in the early '90s, and from there along with all the Baltic states are already in the EU.

double portrait, which was sold June 21, 2004 in London at Bonhams, was from the collection of the late A.Ya.Polonskogo


Provenance:

A.J.Polonsky, Paris.

Private collection, U.K.
(Acquired from the above in 1988).

I do not have this directory.
If it is written, then ask the question - this provenance has grown from 99 th to the year 2004?

And this despite the fact that Polonsky had died long before.
In 1991, the year.
By the way, my wife, it seems so long ago was still alive.
Ask her.

By the way, my wife, it seems so long ago was still alive.
Ask her.

It may prompt a respected guru to contact her?

There is now a charter signed by Daniel Hesse inside.
Fourth from top left - the signature of Leon Trotsky.
Perhaps, dear forum users will find there, and the signature of other interesting personalities.
I would be grateful.
