No, Eugene, look deeper. He's a smart guy, and learned Russian well enough, but it does not take into account the fact that we were taught long enough to read between the lines.
Now we all understand correctly.
Similarly behaved Armand Hammer, when the "help" of Russia with grain. And now the famous portrait of the Doge (a frill) Velazquez reason in his collection.
No, Eugene, there's not so easy ...

Matthew nobody helped, and bought something that nobody wants. And it will be claimed only when, over time, the Soviet past will be no rethinking of modern power like the current speculation. Although some farsighted collectors already know the historical value of these paintings and do not allow their brains to powder tricksters who convinces us of the superiority of Western art. Western collectors see Russia as a unique social phenomenon and a great epoch, which reflected the age-old dream of the Russian people about the possibility of happiness for all. Hence, this sunny optimism in the Soviet arts. In contrast to the aggressive and selfish cynicism of the nationalist art of Nazi Germany. Russian art, great art and Soviet art in the best displays is its continuation. Matthew understood this and took "era" in order to make it triumphantly marched around the world and returned to the house of our fans "Hurst", reflection and spoiled the attention of Western connoisseurs.
