on Saturday 28 July, when the holiday season is in full swing, and the auction season, in contrast, moves into a phase of calm more cool times at the auction house "Russian enamel" held full large trades on the more than three hundred lots. In a single directory has collected paintings and drawings, books and decorative-прикладное art, pictures and posters. The majority of lots offered at attractive starts from 3, 30, 300, 3000 and 30 000. Of course, for three rubles to buy anything and failed. However, the minimum purchase price is impressive: over 40 (!) rubles was sold two drawings by an unknown artist 1970-х years — "Actor, V. I., Khokhryakov in the role." Buyer can only congratulate with the acquisition of two great figures for the price of a subway ride. A dozen lots left at 200, 300, 500, 600 rubles. In rest, lots are for the most part left in the range of 10-20 thousand rubles.

a Total of 338 lots found new owners 274 — 81 %. Total revenues reached 3.6 million of the aforementioned RUB. to Compare this figure with the total estimate of the lots is not entirely correct, because the second number will still start with a total, not an estimate. Anyway: when I'll be able to count optimistic of 131% on the money. Almost all the lots bought on the Internet. Which is not surprising given the beautiful weather and the calendar date. The total number of online-участников over fifty. Occasionally worked in absentia rate. Five-семь people were in the audience more as the audience. At least until the end of the second hour of trading any items in the room, according to my records, was not. During this time, played only a hundred small lots, and to think that in this mode "Siesta" auction continued on.

And now to top-лотам. For 240 thousand rubles. went wonderful work of Vladimir Nemukhin "Jack of diamonds". For original, limited edition works 1971 price is more than fair.
