Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2021 Christies held the auction Russian Art, which included the work Street Musicians And Dancers, Capri; And Ballet Dancers by Alexandre Iacovleff. The price achieved of GBP 10,000.00 (€ 11,652.60) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alexandre Iacovleff achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A dancer in Spanish costume in June 2018 with an auction result of GBP 1,112,750.00 (€ 1,257,597.14).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2021 führte Christies die Auktion Russian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Street Musicians And Dancers, Capri; And Ballet Dancers von Alexandre Iacovleff zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 10.000,00 (€ 11.652,60) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alexandre Iacovleff erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A dancer in Spanish costume im Juni 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.112.750,00 (€ 1.257.597,14).
