Artwork auctioned at nine times the upper estimate price
When the work Christ, Preparatory Design for Ballets Russes Production, Liturgie 10 x 7 3/4 in. (25.4 x 19.3 cm) unframed by Natalia Goncharova was auctioned at Bonhams in March this year, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 600.00 but the actual price achieved was more than nine times as high at USD 5,737.50 (€ 5,277.32). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Natalia Goncharova achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Picking Apples in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 4,948,000.00 (€ 7,342,583.14).
Kunstwerk zum Neunfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Christ, Preparatory Design for Ballets Russes Production, Liturgie 10 x 7 3/4 in. (25.4 x 19.3 cm) unframed von Natalia Goncharova im März diesen Jahres bei Bonhams versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 600,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 5.737,50 (€ 5.277,32) mehr als neunmal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Natalia Goncharova erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Picking Apples im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.948.000,00 (€ 7.342.583,14).
