Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Hunters trekking through a winter landscape by Isaak Levitan was sold in the Russian Pictures Including Post-War and Contemporary Art Part II auction at Christies in London in November 2008. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 12,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 13,750.00 (€ 16,624.78). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Isaak Levitan achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Illumination of the Kremlin in November 2007 with an auction result of GBP 1,588,500.00 (€ 2,224,310.97).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Hunters trekking through a winter landscape von Isaak Levitan wurde im November 2008 in der Auktion Russian Pictures Including Post-War and Contemporary Art Part II bei Christies in London versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 12.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 13.750,00 (€ 16.624,78) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Isaak Levitan erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Illumination of the Kremlin im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.588.500,00 (€ 2.224.310,97).
