At the auction «Bonhams», which will be held November 28, 2012 in London, will be put up for sale the work of "View from the terrace house painter in Feodosia." The description states that the author is Ivan Aivazovsky paintings. Signed in the lower left corner of the picture read the auction organizers as "Ive Boulevard."
I would argue that the canvas nothing to Aivazovsky has. Signed in the lower left corner of the picture to be read as "Shoo Ive. Brzhevsky. "
Vasily Brzhevsky Adamovich, one of the disciples of the great marine painter, as an independent artist has not shown itself, but was a good copyist works by Aivazovsky. The auction I often found copies Brzhevkogo. And if the work is presented under the number 2, "Crimea moored rowing boat" at auction had a small note "Aivazovsky follower", the painting "View from the terrace of the house of the artist in Feodosia" is given as the very fabric of Aivazovsky and its small size (19h31) is estimated 30 000 - 35 000 pounds.
In 2008, the Ukrainian anonymous collector bought the German auction Lempertz product I.Ayvazovsky "The Black Sea» (№ 3-a) for a few hundred euros. The buyer has given a picture of the expertise Vladimir Tsytovich and as a result of examination it was found that a copy of a work by Aivazovsky, made V.A.Brzhevskim. Auction house agreed with the arguments and returned the money to the canvas.
The images fragments of the painting "The Black Sea" can be considered a signature in the visible light - "Aivazovsky» (№ 4), and the signature in the infrared - "Shoo Aivazovsky Brzhevsky» (№ 4-a), which indicates that the signature was podpravlena - inside "Cb" and "Brzhevsky" and fixed the ending name of Ivan Konstantinovich. Thus the problem of the autograph forgers decided, and canvas and paint match the time of creativity Aivazovsky. And brushwork Brzhevskogo was close to the manner of writing the great master.
By the way, the original film "The Black Sea" is located in the Kherson Art Museum. Shovkunenko. There he exhibited under the title "The Tempest leaves» (№ 3).

Dear Nicholas Levenkov,
Your information, in my opinion - deadly accurate. And precisely because of this should definitely be brought to the attention of the organizers of the auction. And they gratefully accepted (however, about gratitude - this is my amateurish fantasy >). But another embarrassment you provide accurate information would avoid .
With sincere admiration, Dilettante .

I believe that real professionals do not have the right to make mistakes in such simple situations. And it turns out that
a) spoil the reputation of the auction house , which work
b) set the stage for lawsuits and proceedings ...

This is just , in my opinion , dangerous conditions , in addition, experts from home auktsionnnogo not experts and indeed the auction house is not an expert organization and for free to make attribution and Technological Research of each lot are not required .
It is just so fortunate that our Members Nicholas Levenkov very deeply in the subject Aivazovsky and every thing it seems to me , he knows thoroughly.
