Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2017 Christies in London held the auction Russian Art, which included the work Blue nude by Vasily Sitnikov. The price achieved of GBP 12,500.00 (€ 14,235.17) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Vasily Sitnikov achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Self-Portrait With Crows By The Kremlin in November 2015 with an auction result of GBP 110,500.00 (€ 157,390.84).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2017 führte Christies in London die Auktion Russian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Blue nude von Vasily Sitnikov zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 12.500,00 (€ 14.235,17) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Vasily Sitnikov erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Self-Portrait With Crows By The Kremlin im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 110.500,00 (€ 157.390,84).
