Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
When the work Fantastic Landscape by Valentina Kropivnitskaya was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in October 2018, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 1,500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 7,500.00 (€ 6,618.43). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Valentina Kropivnitskaya; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Russian A Pair Of Drawings, 1965 sold at auction in April 2008 with the realized price of USD 12,500.00 (€ 8,029.29).
Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Fantastic Landscape von Valentina Kropivnitskaya im Oktober 2018 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 1.500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 7.500,00 (€ 6.618,43) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Valentina Kropivnitskaya; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Russian A Pair Of Drawings, 1965 im April 2008 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 12.500,00 (€ 8.029,29).
