Brodsky v. Nesterova
 

I read this passage.
Want to reply to Nesterov.
Now the base Artprice 42 paintings and 13 graphic objects M. Nesterova. Sales of the last such (giving only the high, 08-year and only the picture):
1. 25/11/2008
"St. Barbara", Sotheby, s, London.
USD 76,398
2. 21/11/2008
"At Departure" /"away", BR, CPH
USD 193,200
3. 13/03/2008
"A girl in white dress", Stockholm
USD 106,795
But I will bring more data on one picture.
Vision lad Bartholomew "(optional) Sold April 17, 2007 at Sotheby, s NY for USD 3 800 000.

Next on I. J. Brodsky. Yes, his pictures in the base Artprice not a lot-20 paintings and 9 pc. graphics.
Sales (only pictures) are: from USD 282 to USD 86,240.
Many are not sold.
A recent large sales of paintings Brodsky were:
1. April 21, 2007
"Portrait of the artist's wife", Van Ham Kunstauktionen, Cologne /Köln (Lot 1933),
EUR 16.000 /USD 21.778 (with Estimé at 34 tons euro, by the way).
2. March 15, 2007
"View of the city from the river at night", Stockholms Auktionsverk,
USD 42.660.

I draw this conclusion:
Painting MV Nesterova "Peresvet and Oslabya"
1. high;
2. picture of a level rarely sold at auction;
W. investment potential is great.

And it did with this picture can not compare the picture of Joseph Brodsky.
Look it up yourself and compare.

... and collection, forgot to add. :)

Of these three points:
with the first two badly, no one disputes - painting the normal (not high) level and rarely at auction, all right. But here is something potential buyers did not agree with the third paragraph and have not felt in this picture of the investment potential, for the estimate was quite large.

For me, this story (why was not sold Nesterov) has remained a mystery. Maybe someone knows what? At the pre-auction show in Moscow, she looked very confident. Especially on the general background. Revaluation? Maybe. Although by the standards of Nesterov's not so high was evaluated. In general, the stars do not come together. Not see any other explanation.

Another get together ...

I personally think that by today's estimate was high, yet almost a million dollars on top. And perhaps now, at such paintings in the Russian style and spirit, not fashion. After a year or two, the demand for such products may well return, but not now ... Plus to buy now, more and more collectors, not investors, and from this point of view Nesterov was not attractive.
And. In this particular case, and the auction picture Brodsky looked much better than this Nesterov. She is better. Because, and has sold almost two times higher than the upper estimate. Let this exception to the rule, Nesterov I like Brodsky, but still we must admit that the Brodsky better.
