At Allee gallery’s spring auction, held on the 7th and 8th of April 2023, numerous top-tier Estonian artworks found new owners. Among them, a record was broken by Konrad Mägi’s “Capri landscape” – sold at a price of 473 000 Eur*, officially making it the all-time most expensive painting sold by an Estonian painter.
The painting, which depicts the lush nature and architecture of the famous Mediterranean island, was in the collection of a well-known Estonian family for over 100 years. The stories and memories connected to the painting will now be passed onto its new owner.
