Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Porte Saint-Martin, Paris by Robert Rafailovich Falk was sold in the Important Russian Art auction at Christies in London in November 2018. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 15,000.00 – 25,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 16,250.00 (€ 18,329.51) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. 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 Porte Saint-Martin, Paris von Robert Rafailovich Falk wurde im November 2018 in der Auktion Important Russian Art bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 16.250,00 (€ 18.329,51) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. 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).
