Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The only way; and four other erotic drawings by Sergei Eisenstein was sold in the Important Russian Art auction at Christies in London in November 2017. It changed hands for a price of GBP 8,750.00 (€ 9,932.55) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 7,000.00 – 9,000.00. Admittedly, works by Sergei Eisenstein have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Fifteen Erotic Drawings in November 2015 with an auction result of GBP 60,000.00 (€ 85,461.09).
