coincide with christmas. but i think that it is more. to say now is thing very serious. that she take time to look at the paintings and we need to make a decision about what they want and that collection pretty party for the show itself is also an event the b.b.c. get a. living aboard including artists and descendants from autistic families as well as collectors of the latest ocean chrissy's to door more than three hundred lots of russian fine art including paintings imperial porcelain jewelry and furniture which are sold for almost fifty million pounds twenty four million dollars in total. we're quite a. spirit option that we sell out from the eighteenth century right up to the present day so for example in this auction we have nineteenth century rights twentieth century rights based on contemporary. one of my favorite lessons says that she this levittown which you could buy the horses which is

a fantastic probably eighteen ninety's through a private collection here and it's really really special saying it chrissie let's meet this week's guest. thank you very much for your time but tell me about your position here at chris's position. the international head of the russian department kristi's. started to work at christie's twenty five years ago in the russian department i became the head of the department in london in one to one and i believe i became the international head main set of the five seven years ago and it seems that russian art has exploded here in london and paris and new york recently well i think it's the great paradox about russian audience has always been present in the old market . yes you have kind of a boom in the field which started five six years ago but you need to keep in mind

that you do very straight in a very strange way to second boom you already had the boom in the late eighty's around one thousand nine hundred nine at the time of the perestroika people could grit interest emotional and. and we got in the ninety's especially well i presume there were many restrictions about wot you could take in and out of russia or the u.s. is ours it was that well you're putting your finger on something that was interesting that at christie's or thing even a certain way even with or all the auction houses we sourcing if i can put it this way russian of arts around europe around the states that in fact not in russia. and people buy russian or in europe and in a certain way bring it back to russia but we're not sourcing this.

in russia which explains why us specialists are pretty busy in the russian field sort of travelling around europe or the states and when you're traveling who is by person not the main by is always the russian but to say that it's only russian to buy a russian would be totally wrong you still have sort of strong buyers who are not russian who are interested by russian art it's far more difficult for them to be in the run if i can put it this way during the option but they're very much present i mean you have to keep in mind that from the meat seventy's up to the ninety's the barriers for russian all known russian buyers and what are we talking about is it postboys contemporize it's over is a classic what kind of rethink everything you when you're talking about paintings it's can be eighteenth century can be nineteen century it can be early twentieth century porcelain one thousand century early twentieth century five vision silver

bronze is we're used to so i can we stop to sell outcomes but more or less everything well i says that it's me in my place for a time so you can see by. christie's we can outside the particular night. it's so hard. some say has been revolutionised by young. hostages. from. teams coming in to spend their cash when the sun goes down. has never seemed so popular. every day. to the british. is a great place to spend time with friends just. the thing we have here a revolution we've been expensive. process from russia is one of our cars that we
