The work Portrait of Fu Wenzhou by Aleksandr Evgen'evich Iakovlev was sold in the Russian Art auction at Christies in New York in April 2008. The »bidding war« ended at USD 23,750.00 (€ 15,255.65), 58% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Aleksandr Evgen'evich Iakovlev achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Vasilii Shukhaev In His Studio in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 2,820,000.00 (€ 4,184,738.17).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 58 % übertroffen

Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 23.750,00 (€ 15.255,65) und damit 58% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Aleksandr Evgen'evich Iakovlev erzielen.
