The work Russia Today by Leonid Sokov was sold in the Russian Pictures auction at Sothebys in London in December 2020. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 18,900.00 (€ 21,112.98), 26% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Leonid Sokov - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Lenin And Giacometti, which sold at auction in June 2018 for GBP 68,750.00 (€ 77,699.22).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
