This artwork by Albert Nikolaevich Benois achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2008. In the Russian Pictures Including Post-War and Contemporary Art Part II auction, the work Juan les Pins, Côtes d'Azur; and A garden with tables sold for GBP 10,000.00 (€ 12,090.75) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Albert Nikolaevich Benois - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work View Of Venice From The Riva Degli Schiavoni, which sold at auction in November 2018 for GBP 22,500.00 (€ 25,379.32).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Albert Nikolaevich Benois erzielte im November 2008 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Russian Pictures Including Post-War and Contemporary Art Part II wurde die Arbeit Juan les Pins, Côtes d'Azur; and A garden with tables für GBP 10.000,00 (€ 12.090,75) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00.
