Artwork auctioned at six times the upper estimate price
The work Boy With A Candle by Alexander Kharitonov was worth GBP 31,200.00 (€ 46,299.23) to a buyer in June 2007. This price was achieved in the auction Russian Pictures, Works of Art and Icons at Sothebys in Olympia and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00 many times over. 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).
