British auction house Mullock's put up for sale a collection of watercolors, painted around 1908 the future Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler. " According to the newspaper The Daily Telegraph, a certain Austrian lawyer, who asked to remain anonymous, discovered the paintings he has bought the farmstead.
In total, auctioneers require bail for the picture about 150 thousand pounds. Bidding will be held Sept. 30 in the town of Ludlow (Ludlow) in the west of England.
Paintings represent rural landscapes. Hitler had them at age 19, at a time when he tried to enter the Vienna Academy of Art. He has twice - in 1907 and 1908 - failed in the entrance exams, and up until World War I earned a living by selling their own small urban landscapes.
Survived quite a few samples of art Hitler. The representative of Mullock's said that the picture is very difficult to sell in Europe because, firstly, in many countries, such trade is subject to a ban on the glorification of Nazism, and secondly, many auction houses belong to Jews, who on principle do not want to sell products of the Nazi leader .
