In June 2014 Sothebys in London held the auction Important Russian Art, which included the work Moscow, Gorky Street by Aleksandr Gerasimov. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 98,500.00 (€ 123,071.04), 41% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Aleksandr Gerasimov - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Still Life With Roses, which sold at auction in May 2012 for GBP 361,250.00 (€ 450,101.61).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 41 % übertroffen
Im Juni 2014 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Important Russian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Moscow, Gorky Street von Aleksandr Gerasimov zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 98.500,00 (€ 123.071,04) und damit 41% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Aleksandr Gerasimov mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Still Life With Roses beobachtet, die im Mai 2012 für GBP 361.250,00 (€ 450.101,61) versteigert wurde.
