A top price for Abram Krol - as previously expected
The work Bestiaire by Abram Krol was auctioned at Bonhams in Los Angeles in June last year. The price achieved of USD 1,020.00 (€ 974.31) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 800.00 – 1,200.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Bestiaire is the most expensive artwork by Abram Krol that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Bestiaire von Abram Krol kam im Juni letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in Los Angeles zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.020,00 (€ 974,31) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Bestiaire das teuerste Kunstwerk von Abram Krol, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
