Despite a disappointment, a good price for Igor Grabar

When the work A Summer Evening by Igor Grabar was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2011, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 200,000.00 – 300,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 169,250.00 (€ 197,582.04). Despite this disappointing result, A Summer Evening is the most expensive artwork by Igor Grabar that we have observed at auction so far.

Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Igor Grabar

Als die Arbeit A Summer Evening von Igor Grabar im November 2011 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 200.000,00 – 300.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 169.250,00 (€ 197.582,04) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist A Summer Evening das teuerste Kunstwerk von Igor Grabar, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
