Auction result well in line with expectations
The work No Smoking by Alexander Kosolapov was sold in the Escape Artists – The Non-Conformists Online auction at Sothebys in London in October 2020. The price achieved of GBP 3,024.00 (€ 3,357.89) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alexander Kosolapov achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work McLenin's in November 2021 with an auction result of GBP 73,080.00 (€ 85,802.80).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit No Smoking von Alexander Kosolapov wurde im Oktober 2020 in der Auktion Escape Artists – The Non-Conformists Online bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.024,00 (€ 3.357,89) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.500,00 – 3.500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alexander Kosolapov erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit McLenin's im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 73.080,00 (€ 85.802,80).
