Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2012 Sothebys in London held the auction Important Russian Art, which included the work A View Of Mount Karaugom, Caucasus by Petr Vereshchagin. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 120,000.00 – 180,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 133,250.00 (€ 166,023.64) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Petr Vereshchagin - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work View Of Palace Square, St Petersburg, which sold at auction in June 2013 for GBP 506,500.00 (€ 591,176.21).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2012 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Important Russian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit A View Of Mount Karaugom, Caucasus von Petr Vereshchagin zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 120.000,00 – 180.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 133.250,00 (€ 166.023,64) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Petr Vereshchagin mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit View Of Palace Square, St Petersburg beobachtet, die im Juni 2013 für GBP 506.500,00 (€ 591.176,21) versteigert wurde.
