In November 2007 Christies in London held the auction Russian Icons and Pictures Including works by Non-Conformist Artists, which included the work Roses in a vase; and Another similar by Irene Klestova. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 3,000.00 (€ 4,200.78), 67% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Irene Klestova; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Mixed roses in a porcelain jardinière sold at auction in November 2007 with the realized price of GBP 5,625.00 (€ 7,876.46).
