In Italy, a criminal case has been ongoing for several months against the former owner of the Green Mama company and an employee of the Russian special services.
Professor Mikhail Tamoikin, head of the Tamoikin Art Fund (TAF), recognized Oleg Nasobin as incompetent and doubtful when assessing a supposed self-portrait of Benvenuto Cellini.
Recognition of the drawing found by Nasobin as a masterpiece of world painting of the XVI century has again been postponed indefinitely.
