Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work View Of A French Village; Set Design For Act I Of Donizetti'S Lucia Di Lammermoor At La Scala by Alexander Nikolaevich Benois was worth GBP 6,250.00 (€ 7,699.37) to a buyer in November 2012. This price was achieved in the auction Russian Paintings at Sothebys in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 2,000.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alexander Nikolaevich Benois achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Promenade of Empress Elizabeth in April 2006 with an auction result of USD 441,600.00 (€ 349,809.89).
