Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Isaak Levitan could be acquired at Sothebys in London in June 2017 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Russian Pictures auction, the work Summer changed hands for GBP 908,750.00 (€ 1,034,896.70) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,000,000.00 – 1,500,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Isaak Levitan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Illumination of the Kremlin, which sold at auction in November 2007 for GBP 1,588,500.00 (€ 2,224,310.97).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Isaak Levitan konnte im Juni 2017 bei Sothebys in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Russian Pictures wechselte die Arbeit Summer für GBP 908.750,00 (€ 1.034.896,70) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.000.000,00 – 1.500.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Isaak Levitan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Illumination of the Kremlin beobachtet, die im November 2007 für GBP 1.588.500,00 (€ 2.224.310,97) versteigert wurde.
