Anonymous sale; Sotheby's, New York, 15 December 1977, lot 17. | Acquired at the above sale by the late owner.

Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Two costume designs for 'Prince Igor' by Mstislav Dobuzhinsky was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2017. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 6,250.00 (€ 7,117.58). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mstislav Dobuzhinsky achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Boats On The Neva in June 2014 with an auction result of GBP 92,500.00 (€ 115,574.32).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit Two costume designs for 'Prince Igor' von Mstislav Dobuzhinsky kam im Juni 2017 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 6.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 6.250,00 (€ 7.117,58) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mstislav Dobuzhinsky erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Boats On The Neva im Juni 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 92.500,00 (€ 115.574,32).
