In November 2007 Christies in London held the auction Important Portrait Miniatures and Gold Boxes, which included the work Nicholas I (1796-1855), Tsar of Russia 1825-1855, in red-bordered dark uniform, gold-embroidered red collar and gold epaulettes, wearing the blue moiré sash and breast-star of the Imperial Russian Order of St. Andrew, the breast-star of St. Vladimir by Ivan Winberg. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 3,250.00 (€ 4,550.84), 30% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Ivan Winberg have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Young Russian Nobleman With Forward-Combed Dark Hair, In Silver-Piped Dark Green Coat With Gold-Figured Red Collar, Gold Epaulettes With The Cypher of Tsar Nicholas I And Aiguillettes, Wearing The Breast-Star of The Imperial Russian Order of St. Al in November 2006 with an auction result of GBP 19,200.00 (€ 28,512.6

Im November 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion Important Portrait Miniatures and Gold Boxes durch, in der auch die Arbeit Nicholas I (1796-1855), Tsar of Russia 1825-1855, in red-bordered dark uniform, gold-embroidered red collar and gold epaulettes, wearing the blue moiré sash and breast-star of the Imperial Russian Order of St. Andrew, the breast-star of St. Vladimir von Ivan Winberg zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 3.250,00 (€ 4.550,84) und damit 30% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Ivan Winberg auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A Young Russian Nobleman With Forward-Combed Dark Hair, In Silver-Piped Dark Green Coat With Gold-Figured Red Collar, Gold Epaulettes With The Cypher of Tsar Nicholas I And Aiguillettes, Wearing The Breast-Star of The Imperial Russian Order of St. Al im Novembe
