This artwork by Leonid Sokov achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in October 2019. In the Escape Artists 2.0: The Non-Conformists Online auction, the work Volley Of Aurora sold for USD 32,500.00 (€ 29,134.92) - well above the upper estimate of USD 15,000.00. 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).
