Description
Collection of Dr Edward Brett (1928-2018). | Acquired at the estate sale of the above by the present owner on 6 September 2019.
Upper estimate price exceeded by 75 %.
This artwork by Alexander Orlovsky achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2020. In the Russian Art auction, the work Gentleman with a pigtail; Portly gentleman; Sailor; and Gentleman with a riding crop sold for GBP 5,250.00 (€ 5,860.77) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alexander Orlovsky achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Battle between the Georgians and the mountain tribes in November 2011 with an auction result of GBP 58,850.00 (€ 68,701.35).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Alexander Orlovsky erzielte im November 2020 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Russian Art wurde die Arbeit Gentleman with a pigtail; Portly gentleman; Sailor; and Gentleman with a riding crop für GBP 5.250,00 (€ 5.860,77) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alexander Orlovsky erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Battle between the Georgians and the mountain tribes im November 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 58.850,00 (€ 68.701,35).
