Vasilyev defended the district court in the city of Ekaterinburg 180 hours of public labor after drawing more eyes into the million -dollar picture.

Aleksandr Vasilyev, 60, in December last year, drew her eyes into the picture of three characters on display in the abstract art exhibition at the center of Boris Yeltsin in Ekaterinburg.

The district court in Ekaterinburg, Russia, on August 29 issued a decision to punish Vasilyev 180 hours of public labor and asked him to seek mental treatment.

The picture was drawn for the character when displayed in the center of Boris Yeltsin, Ekaterinburg, Russia in December 2021.

Vasilyev's lawyer tried to reduce the crime of helping the client, but the court rejected because of this protection constantly asserting that he did not do anything wrong.

During the trial of Vasilyev, many people had a voice, including the Urals Governor, all called for drilling with this protection.

The picture of three characters without the five officials is the work of the late painter Anna Leporskaya, who was drawn from 1932 to 1934 and was insured for 75 million ruble (one million USD).

This is not the first time the great value painting has been destroyed in Russia.

The picture of Our Lady and the child sold for $ 30 in 2016 was the work of Albrecht Dürer, which could be worth tens of millions of dollars.

The painting was half canceled by artist Banksy, who was auctioned three years ago, continued to be sold for $ 25.4 million.
