In Nizhny sell a secret portrait of Nikolai Gogol for 200 million

In Nizhny Novgorod for sale put up an old portrait of Nikolai Gogol. They ask for 200 million rubles. The information is posted on the site of free ads.

According to the seller, the canvas was created in 1840. The author could be an artist from Hamburg, familiar with the writer. According to the seller, this is the only secret portrait of Gogol. His writer brought him to Odessa in 1848 and forbade anyone to show. Later the picture was in the descendants of the writer.

Its value lies in the fact that it is the only chance to see, and only to the one who buys it, what Gogol hid about his private life; the value is even higher than any of the five thousand works of Aivazovsky, which anyone with money can buy, and this secret can only be bought by one person and only he is allowed to see it, since it is not given to anyone living to know what he will see.
