The work After The Ascension by Alexander Kharitonov was sold in the Russian Paintings auction at Sothebys in London in June 2013. It achieved a price of GBP 20,000.00 (€ 23,343.58), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 67%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Alexander Kharitonov - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Russian Faith From The Sorceress Series, 1965, which sold at auction in April 2008 for USD 145,000.00 (€ 93,139.77).
