俄罗斯艺术
For over five decades, Christie’s has led the Russian Art market, setting the benchmark for expertise, record-breaking results, and offering works of the highest calibre. This legacy is exemplified by two landmark world auction records: Petrov-Vodkin’s Still Life with Lilac, which achieved an extraordinary £9.3 million in June 2019 - making it the most expensive painting ever sold in a Russian art sale - and the magnificent Rothschild Fabergé Egg, which realised £8.9 million in November 2007, the highest price ever paid at auction for a Russian work of art.
Christie’s curated Russian Art sales previously set world auction records for over fifty artists, including Serov, Goncharova, Annenkov, and Aivazovsky, among many others, reinforcing our status as the auction house of choice for masterpieces. In addition, in response to the growing demand for private sales, we recently successfully negotiated the sale of a Nicholas Roerich masterpiece.
We continue to achieve record prices for Fabergé and Russian Works of Art, further solidifying our leadership in this category. Christie’s is renowned for being entrusted with some of the world’s most significant private collections, including those of the Woolf, Clore, Forbes, and Kazan families. Most recently, in March 2025, we facilitated the private sale of an important group of Fabergé pieces formerly in the Wernher Collection at Luton Hoo, ensuring that this historic collection remains in the UK.
With a reputation for rigorous research and unparalleled expertise, our specialists offer private sale consultations, complimentary and confidential auction valuations, and tailored market advice on paintings, works on paper, Fabergé, jewellery, sculpture, silver, and porcelain spanning the 17th century to the present day.
