Russian art for London auctions
Published May 30th, 2006
Three London auction houses are offering 19th- and 20th-century Russian art worth as much as $51 million this week, a month after New York sales broke records.
The sales of paintings, sculptures, icons, porcelain, arms and Faberge works open today at MacDougall Arts Ltd. with an auction the company estimates may fetch 5 million pounds ($9.4 million). Sotheby’s Holdings Inc. says its sale tomorrow may reap 20 million pounds. Bonhams, which ends the auctions on June 1, expects about 2.5 million pounds.
