A top price for Konstantin Ivanovich Rozhdestvensky
When the work Grain Silo by Konstantin Ivanovich Rozhdestvensky was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 60,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than ten times as high at GBP 644,200.00 (€ 719,628.81). This high result makes Grain Silo the most expensive artwork by Konstantin Ivanovich Rozhdestvensky that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Konstantin Ivanovich Rozhdestvensky
Als die Arbeit Grain Silo von Konstantin Ivanovich Rozhdestvensky im Dezember 2020 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 60.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 644.200,00 (€ 719.628,81) mehr als zehnmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Grain Silo zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Konstantin Ivanovich Rozhdestvensky, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
