That's enlightening. Never heard of the existence of "Black and Yellow and White"
https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Чёрно-жёлто-белый_флаг
Yeah. But it's a good idea to read at least the first five lines. Better still, the whole article:
...on the eveof the coronation of Alexander III on April 28 1883theMinister of Internal Affairs issueda Supreme order"About the flags to decorate the buildings on solemn occasions"[23]. It only authorized the use ofwhite, blue and red flags for the decoration of buildings and prohibited the use of foreign flags for the decoration of buildings on solemn occas ions:
Here is an illustrative article about the flag:https://ria.ru/20130822/957708240.html
And here is an article about the events the picture is about: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Голод_в_России_(1891-1892)
Artem, look closely, in 1892 was there such a flag in Russia? (it is difficult to say about the US flag - you can hardly see the number and location of stars)
I read a long time ago about these paintings by Aivazovsky. There are two on the theme of humanitarian aid to starving Russia: "The Relief Ship" and "Food Distribution".
Interesting? Yes. Is it enlightening? It's undoubtedly. But what is there to discuss? Well there was a humanitarian aid, Aivazovsky portrayed it in two paintings. And then? And then we will begin a mocking laughter about this fact (as often happens here, thanks to the efforts of some gentlemen), or ... or what? A discussion by art historians? Historians? Who? What?
I don't see any development of this topic for discussion here.
ZS. I will be glad to be wrong in my conclusions about impossibility to have a talk on this topic in a sensible neutral manner.
...And it's not a fake, but a real painting by the well known Aivazovsky, called "Food Distribution", 1892
There is a second painting to this one, 'Relief Ship', last sold as a pair , total price $2.4ml. Both seem to have settled in a private collection. Remarkably, the price of the ninth shaft is $1.9
Almost from the beginning, the philanthropic movement took on anunofficial character. The American government took a negative view of the campaign. A general deterioration in inter-state relations caused by the clash of US and Russian interests in the Far East, increased competition on the world bread market and the foreign policy reorientation of the countries had an impact. To this should be added increased controversy in the ideological sphere, which was associated with the establishment of a regime of internal political reaction in the empire. However, this attitude of their own government did not embarrass the Americans. The slogan of the participants and organizers of the philanthropic movement were the words of W. Edgar: "It isnot a question of politics, it is a question of humanity".

I only gave you the information, to you.
Do the right thing and tear down ALL posts relating to politics and ban as you see fit in view of the information you have received and according to your standards of fairness.

Jura, all this is interesting - no doubt - but it is "walking on a razor's edge".
Finish it all.
