Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price

When the work Boats in Crimea by Alexander Vasilievich Kuprin was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2002, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 700.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 2,350.00 (€ 3,679.98). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alexander Vasilievich Kuprin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Autumn Bouquet Against Blue Background (Krylatskoe) in November 2018 with an auction result of GBP 225,000.00 (€ 253,793.16).

Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit Boats in Crimea von Alexander Vasilievich Kuprin im November 2002 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 700,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 2.350,00 (€ 3.679,98) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alexander Vasilievich Kuprin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Autumn Bouquet Against Blue Background (Krylatskoe) im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 225.000,00 (€ 253.793,16).
