Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Sulamit Rahu by Jan Štursa was sold in the Impressionist and Modern Art Day and Works on Paper Sale auction at Christies in London in March 2021. It changed hands for a price of GBP 7,500.00 (€ 8,810.57) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jan Štursa - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Czech messalina, which sold at auction in June 2011 for GBP 27,500.00 (€ 30,423.64).
