top ten auction records firmly belongs to the artists of the Russian Diaspora and the "Amazons of the avant-garde". Natalia Goncharova, Tamara De Lempicka, Liubov Popova, Varvara Stepanova. Entrance ticket to the top-10 is worth more than $ 1 million.

In the first place — Natalia Goncharova. Auction record for her works — a little less than $ 11 million — was set in 2008 at Christie's. The figure is almost impregnable.

Please note that in the ranking of the auction presents a lot of living artists. So, the second twenty of auction records reveals a picture of "the Miller and his son" semidesyatye Natalia Nesterova. The work was sold for $182 500 in 2007. Next — Olga Bulgakova with the result of $159 400, Svetlana Kopystyanskaya, Irina Nakhova, Katya Filippova, Tatiana Nazarenko, and others.
