Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A pair of street scenes, Paris by Robert Rafailovich Falk was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2018. The price achieved of GBP 22,500.00 (€ 25,379.32) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 18,000.00 – 25,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Rafailovich Falk achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Woman with a pink fan in November 2005 with an auction result of GBP 1,016,000.00 (€ 1,492,632.40).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A pair of street scenes, Paris von Robert Rafailovich Falk kam im November 2018 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 22.500,00 (€ 25.379,32) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 18.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Rafailovich Falk erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Woman with a pink fan im November 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.016.000,00 (€ 1.492.632,40).
