And the results " Russian " Sotheby's auction [/URL] comment on any of the experts?
Annenkovsky "Portrait of Anna Akhmatova " fell just short of a million pounds ( while the estimate 150-200 thousand) , everything else in the range of 200 million, nearly half did not sell.

Not exactly an expert, but will express their point of view. As it happens, good things are gone, the bad were worthless. But you look at the goings good things. Many of them are quite confident exceeded the estimate. Take, for my favorite non-conformists. Weisberg secured the success of last year and this year surely raised the bar, breaking the 200,000 lbs. Is not this the result! And the rest of the work went very well - Bulatov, Vasiliev, Kharitonov. A modest price Krasnopevtseva only shows that the people were not quite sure of its origin, although, in my opinion, are absolutely genuine. They confirm, and they'll be worth twice as much. Yes, do not went great job Rabin, but the price was too Zadran. Perhaps it's a fair price for this item (all are the best period), but not today. In addition, there was not a "church-samovars, vodka."

In general, in my view, a well-received auction, sure. Going the right way, comrades!

Much more interesting to look at the results Makdugalsa. They have, in my opinion, turned a chaotic directory. However, it almost always is.

PS. By the way, another "justification", "Sotheby's". Perhaps, I thought, but in this auction was less than usual things "to the origin." Therefore, the battle had such uncertain. But it is much more profitable real connoisseurs - they could buy a good thing for a very reasonable price. But then again, maybe it's just my personal experience.

So it turns out that the extraordinary things begin to seek a space in terms of prices.
and everything else and stays in place

It turns out that is the segmentation and fragmentation of the market

not like before all grew at the same time and "a rising tide lifts all boats"

Looks like it. Although quite a pair in my opinion excellent works Malyavina rush into space for some reason fails, only the left - creepy scandalous .

Absolutely correct conclusion. To this we must add that there was a fundamental change in relation to the works on paper, our people have realized that the graphics on the artistic effects can not yield to the painting, and, consequently, the price may be appropriate.
As for the works of medium level, due to the current, of course temporary, decline in interest in them, dealers try to buy them as cheaply as possible, since it is possible they will have to keep in stock for quite a long time. Accordingly, the auction is a lot of post-auction offers not gone to work at a lower price. So, today was quite funny, I did not even consider buying one work, but because it did not go away and it became clear that the reserve is much lower estimeyta, I immediately made a proposal to the auction. One hour after the end of the auction Sotheby's staff said that this work has received five offers!

It's certainly not a record to be more expensive and sold at auction Chagall and Soutine , and Jawlensky and Kandinsky and Malevich, but, generally , it was cool. Unhappy Bonhams doubled in the last three days changed estimeyt work , afraid to miscalculate ( in my memory was not like this at all) . In the hall to 4 million people beating 5, the same number was on the phone. Not far from me, little man offered 6 million , and when this was not enough , I almost burst into tears . Here it is a terrible power of art! And for Comrade Ivanov ( sm.posledny auction lot ) paid 80,000 !) . Krrrasota !

qwerty,

It's about the Work N Roerich. Around 15-million dollars.
