Ivan Aivazovsky’s ‘Off the Southern Coast’ became the top lot at MacDougall’s, Forbes reports.

The painting, written by the artist in 1893, is preliminarily estimated at 400,000–600,000 GBP.

Last time, the work was exhibited at Sotheby’s in the summer of 2007 as a painting of one of the followers of Aivazovsky. It was sold for 108,000 GBP.

The MacDougall’s auction is held these days online on the platform of the Parisian auction house Hôtel Drouot.
