The auction is very questionable ...
Lots 70 (Burliuk) and 71 (Agafonov) bought on eBay. And Burlyuk fake, I have not picked up, while Agafonova start was $ 300. I laziness set $ 400. She left this picture on eBay for $ 500 (I may be wrong a little bit). And here is 6000-12000 $! Here they are, investment!
Lots 78 (Burliuk), 81 (Vasiliev), 63 (Yakovlev), 65 (Mania Mavro) is extremely doubtful.
Lot 42 (brewery), where some had seen, I do not remember.
Lot 45 (Kholodovskii) - 99%confident that the counterfeiting.
Another hit prices Lomykina - from 8000 $ to 25000 $! Well, where? Maksimenko too overvalued.
And all this only at first glance.

Antique salon in Kiev, which exhibited paintings from private collections of Ukrainian politicians and businessmen have become increasingly bogged down in scandals. First, the problems were, in order to open the exhibition. "From the room and not moved out exposition of" Great Ukrainians "project under the patronage of Peter Yushchenko, - a" 24 "Natalia Zabolotnaya, director of the Ukrainian House. - Peter Andreevich was against the fact of opening Antiquarian salon, people say that there is a collection of drawers, which has no attitude toward Ukrainian statehood. "
Let the stripped-down territory, but the salon opened. The next day, come for law enforcers. One of the works exhibited for sale, was stolen.
PGO and Security Service directly at the exhibition were seized Ukrainian artist canvas Nicholas Glushchenko "Winter Sun", among other stolen in the early years of Uman local history museum.

Glushchenko now more expensive

In the Ukrainian House yesterday was crowded, most visitors never even heard of the stolen works of famous Ukrainian painter Glushchenko. Do not know the details of the case and sellers, showing here is not less valuable works of art. And maybe keep quiet for ethical reasons.

"Winter Sun" brought for sale Berdichevsky businessman and collector Alexander Krasovsky.

"I bought her a verbal agreement after an auction from a private owner. I am the fourth person who buys this work and no problem was not with her - told" 24 "Alexander. - I always buy the picture, who came in our store, buy only from wealthy people, because if suddenly that - to them it will be possible to bring the claim. I Glushchenko five thousand works - how do I know, looks like the same one from Uman museum. By the way, the experts unanimously agreed that the work Glushchenko now jump in the price of 2 - 3 times.

"They're practically a finger pointed to the work and called me and the owner of the painting. They asked permission to withdraw, we certainly agree. And in the presence of witnesses from the Ukrainian House took the work - told" 24 "Natalia Zabolotnaya. - The owner is very upset by the incident, but If a picture is returned to the museum, we'll be happy. However, not completely known - whether she is painting.

How Alexander laid out for now - does not speak. Recognized only that they sold it at auction for much higher prices. And now he intends to return their money, strebovav them with the seller.

Prosecutor's Office gave a picture of the Kiev Institute of forensic medical examination, where it will work, and art.

THEFT put on stream

Natalia said the theft of works of art in Ukraine grows into a national disaster. "Over the past two years, pictures of our artists have risen in price almost quadrupled, and it is not the limit. People with wealth, increasingly, good painting and sculpture are in demand. Also grew as the number of auction houses - in the season is three to four auctions, - says Natalya. - And then: the state has created an environment in which to steal easily: in the provincial museum of rotten doors and no security. And gallery owners do not know exactly how many paintings stolen in Ukraine and what kind of work. "

The cost of the paintings stolen this week in the Uzhhorod castle, can be several times higher than the amount to ten days before the incident Transcarpathian museum asked the regional leadership for the installation of alarm systems. Deputy director of the Museum for Science Paul Fedak said "24", that the application dealt with about 160 thousand UAH. Cloths same about the theft of which was announced yesterday morning, experts estimate at 500 thousand UAH.

From the castle stole four paintings of the classics of the Carpathian school: "Falls Lyutyanka Emmanuel Grabar," Les "Anton Kashaya," Beech Forest "Theodore Manaylo and Vorochaevskie rock" Joseph Bocsa.

In the center of public relations of the Transcarpathian OblUMVD we were informed that in recent years, theft of the paintings have become commonplace for the region.

Leading specialist DSP Ministry of Internal Affairs Vladimir Pavlyuk believes that the hunters to catch the pictures can not, because they are well organized, have the markets, often working on an order. For black work, apparently using amateurs - with the latest theft of paintings from their frames have been cut quite roughly, with that which may be the most valuable, attackers cut signature Manaylo, leaving her with a frame. Sell now with this shortcoming will be more difficult.

Register of stolen paintings no

Actively steal works of art began in the last year, noted in the Prosecutor General's Office. "Already this year the trend became evident. The fact that the market for antiques has become a growth spurt. The instability of currencies, the global economic crisis, the appreciation of paintings by Ukrainian artists - all this has led to unprecedented demand for the Ukrainian works of art," - says "24" Gregory Ryabenko, deputy chief of investigation department of the General Directorate of military prosecutors of the General Prosecutor of Ukraine.

Stolen painting in Ukraine can be resold even to infinity. Sooner or later, the prosecutor's office or the Security Service discovered the theft, but only if the work was not included in private collections, and actively sold on auctions. By the Prosecutor General and the Security Service registry, which lists stolen works, there is no access. "Yes, this is a problem - the legal conflict" - Gregory agrees Ryabenko.

Antikvarschiki added: nobody in the country knows the full list of works of art stolen in Ukraine. "Logically, to bypass all the antique dealers and show that they stole, as it looks. But no - prosecutors to open criminal charges of theft, and any criminal case under the law are secret, and intelligence agencies have been slow to acquaint us with the registries of stolen things," - Victor laments Fedchishin, expert of the auction house "Four Corners". Abroad, explain the experts agreed to produce catalogs of objects that are being sought. The site of Interpol these registries with illustrations too. "But we do not, because the country is so amazing - resold stolen works and nobody knows what sells and buys" - sums up the businessman Alexander Krasovsky.


Very cultural investigators

To find the stolen painting, the staff of the Prosecutor General and the Security Service must conduct an active cultural life and regular visits to the largest antique exhibitions. "But frontally address this does not make sense. Therefore, we visit only those events for which there is any suspicion," - explained "24" Ryabenko Gregory, deputy chief of investigation department of the General Directorate of General Military prosecutors prokuraty Ukraine.
The Prosecutor's Office is investigation into the stolen 24 paintings from Uman and Yampolsky local history museums. "From them we have already found more than 12 paintings. Hopefully, the picture Glushchenko of the Ukrainian House will become the thirteenth and we will be able to bring it back. According to expert estimates, the total value of the stolen paintings 1,7 million UAH. But keep in mind that only one painting Nicholas Glushchenko exhibited in the Ukrainian House, the owner requested 750 thousand UAH. hence, the market price of all the missing pieces of art are much higher. "
For theft of paintings have been arrested, including law enforcement. "Members of the Security Service and police - they have been directly implicated in the theft of paintings. They and civilians during the investigation are in jail."

On "Agyutt bought my friend this Vasilyev after the auction. Was exhibited a large collection of gouaches. It turns out that all fake?
http://www.aguttes-coissard.com/resultats/index.htm
I do not think that just one auction exhibited a large collection of fake work. They are usually diluted bidding.

The site "Agyutt" manifest putannitsa the totals prices. Many of the lots is incorrect price.

[SergeiSK]

uriart,
I did not write that Vassiliev fake. Write - in doubt. But there are two Burliuk just fake.

[uriart]

I wanted to afford to buy after the auction a couple of her gouaches, Vasilyeva, but changed his mind.
I like to work with oil.
But for Kholodovskii can and to argue.
It does not agree that forgery.
The work was all research. Paint over time. Signed on raw.
And it is not blurred places. Old normal canvas.
Manner - there indentichnye work. And the last argument.
Who needed such a "major" artist to be counterfeit?
One would think that forged today. Agree. However, research results indicate the contrary.
So excuse me, my friend!
Explicitly hasty conclusions.

Apparently hasty conclusions.

Can not argue ... Evening at home see a selection of fake artworks Kholodovskii, suddenly something like find. Or the work itself. Just the name of this artist recently linked several cases of selling fakes, and with Ukrainian examinations.

[uriart]

Yes, it would be interesting to see.
I would be very grateful for
