Who said that they were small?

[LCR]

Today's program XVII century Dutch still-life - the work of Willem Klaas, Klaas Gedy, Willem Kalf, and many others, which are called "small Dutch. Look at how many of them harmony, but in their "quiet life" (all decent people call this zhenr exactly Stillleben, Still life, and only the scoundrels French dubbed it a "dead nature", and Russian, of course, sobezyannichali!) Finally, how much greatness in them.
These still lifes, sometimes written on the blackboard, often appear on the market.
With regard to their investment potential - can not say anything, but for the price, tell a story like this: once one Rublevsky dealer, I saw quite a wonderful still life - on a dark background, with silver, crystal, etc., is stylistically very similar to Guesde, the whole evening could not depart from it. And then found out that he sold it for $ 100000 - because it is a gift!
