Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of Willem Claesz. Heda's Wife by Sergei Essaian was sold in the Post-War and Contemporary Russian Art from a Private Collection auction at Sothebys in London in December 2021. The price achieved of GBP 4,788.00 (€ 5,711.08) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Admittedly, works by Sergei Essaian have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Pope'S Dinner in February 2007 with an auction result of GBP 24,000.00 (€ 35,579.14).
