Newly Employed Security Draws Eyes On £740,000 1931 Painting In Russia(Pics) by Explorers(m): 4:50am On Sep 07, 2022
A security guard accused of doodling eyes onto a £740,000 painting's faceless figures at a Russian art gallery suffered a lapse of sanity on his first day, the exhibition' curator said.


To the dismay of many, the guard is said to have drawn two pairs of eyes with a pen onto artist Anna Leporskaya's 'Three Figures' (1932–1934) painting, while it was on display at an abstract art exhibition at the Yeltsin Center in the city of Yekaterinburg, Russia.

The man, has since been fired by the private security firm hired by the gallery and police have opened an investigation into the defacement.

Photos: Before and after the defacement.

Two visitors at the Yeltsin Center (pictured) spotted the extra details to two of the three figures on the 1930s painting.

The damage to the painting and the restoration has been estimated at £2,470.

When you don't know the value of something, abuse is inevitable. They should have taken him round to tell him the value of each object in that place before employing him. I remember some years ago in Lagos when I wanted to work with an electronics sales company. I was told to bring two guarantors in case I destroy anything in the shop cheesy cheesy grin, that was the last time they saw me in that place because I saw even tv sets sold for N9m there and that was many many years ago cheesy grin.

It actually looks better this way. Don't mind these money-miss-road fellows. They would have raised the worth if it was the originator that drew the eyes. They are only angry because it was a security guard that did it
