Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Sergei Chekhonin achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in June 2019. In the Russian Art auction, the work Two designs for journals 'Plamia'; and 'Jar-Ptitsa'; and An Ex Libris sold for GBP 13,750.00 (€ 15,457.04) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sergei Chekhonin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Still Life With Roses, Anemones And Chrysanthemums In A Chinese Vase in June 2021 with an auction result of GBP 275,000.00 (€ 320,446.49).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Sergei Chekhonin erzielte im Juni 2019 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Russian Art wurde die Arbeit Two designs for journals 'Plamia'; and 'Jar-Ptitsa'; and An Ex Libris für GBP 13.750,00 (€ 15.457,04) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sergei Chekhonin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Still Life With Roses, Anemones And Chrysanthemums In A Chinese Vase im Juni 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 275.000,00 (€ 320.446,49).
