Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of Adam Adamovich Menelas (1753-1831) by Vladimir Borovikovsky was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2005. The price achieved of GBP 31,200.00 (€ 45,836.74) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Vladimir Borovikovsky achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of Prince Petr Vasilievich Lopukhin (1753-1827), Wearing The Star And Sash Of The Order Of St Andrew, The Star And Cross Of The Order Of St Vladimir, The Order Of Alexander Nevskii, The Order Of Malta And A Diamond Portrait Badge in June 2014 with an auction result of GBP 2,154,500.00 (€ 2,691,944.6
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait of Adam Adamovich Menelas (1753-1831) von Vladimir Borovikovsky kam im November 2005 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 31.200,00 (€ 45.836,74) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Vladimir Borovikovsky erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait Of Prince Petr Vasilievich Lopukhin (1753-1827), Wearing The Star And Sash Of The Order Of St Andrew, The Star And Cross Of The Order Of St Vladimir, The Order Of Alexander Nevskii, The Order Of Malta And A Diamond Portrait Badge im Juni 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.154.500,00 (€ 2.691.944,67).
