Artwork auctioned at six times the upper estimate price
When the work A Group Of Three Sketches: A Marketplace, A Falconry Scene, Three Nudes by Alexander Volkov was auctioned at Sothebys in London in May 2012, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 9,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than six times as high at GBP 57,650.00 (€ 71,829.36). Admittedly, works by Alexander Volkov have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Moonlit mausoleums in November 2012 with an auction result of GBP 433,250.00 (€ 533,720.04).
Kunstwerk zum Sechsfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit A Group Of Three Sketches: A Marketplace, A Falconry Scene, Three Nudes von Alexander Volkov im Mai 2012 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches.

Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Alexander Volkov auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Moonlit mausoleums im November 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 433.250,00 (€ 533.720,04).
