Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Nikolai Smirnov achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in June 2020. In the Russian Pictures auction, the work Still Life With Old Things sold for GBP 12,500.00 (€ 13,766.58) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. Admittedly, works by Nikolai Smirnov have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Grandmother'S Love Songs in November 2014 with an auction result of GBP 50,000.00 (€ 62,863.80).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Nikolai Smirnov erzielte im Juni 2020 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Russian Pictures wurde die Arbeit Still Life With Old Things für GBP 12.500,00 (€ 13.766,58) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Nikolai Smirnov auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Grandmother'S Love Songs im November 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 50.000,00 (€ 62.863,80).
