A top price for Zinaida Serebriakova
When the work Study Of A Sleeping Girl by Zinaida Serebriakova was auctioned at Sothebys in London in June 2015, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 600,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than six times as high at GBP 3,845,000.00 (€ 5,421,401.74). This high result makes Study Of A Sleeping Girl the most expensive artwork by Zinaida Serebriakova that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Zinaida Serebriakova
Als die Arbeit Study Of A Sleeping Girl von Zinaida Serebriakova im Juni 2015 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 600.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 3.845.000,00 (€ 5.421.401,74) mehr als sechsmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Study Of A Sleeping Girl zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Zinaida Serebriakova, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
