One of the intriguing paradoxes of history is that the creators of the "non-market"
Soviet economy made a significant contribution to the development of the world market
for icon paintings. At the turn of the 1920s-1930s, through their efforts, an enormous
number of icons was collected, a grandiose advertising campaign was carried out -
the first Soviet foreign icon exhibition, which presented the world in all its splendor
with a new antique product: icons from the USSR - contacts were established with Western
antique dealers and sales of collections of icons were organized for foreign buyers.
The search for currency for industrialization resulted in the development of world-wide
interest in the icon. The book tells about the history of museums and people (fate
treated some of them favorably, others mercilessly), how the grandiose icon collection
of the State Museum Fund was created and liquidated, who selected icons for export
and how, how many icons were put up for sale by Russian museums, whether the icons
sold were fakes, as well as what fate awaited the icons after the sale
