Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Akim Monet could be acquired at Phillips in London in January 2018 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Evening & Day Editions auction, the work Domus Adriani (Hadrian's Alexandrian Gardens) changed hands for GBP 1,375.00 (€ 1,569.94) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Akim Monet - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Cave Cathedral, which sold at auction in November 2006 for USD 6,600.00 (€ 4,977.00).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Akim Monet konnte im Januar 2018 bei Phillips in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Evening & Day Editions wechselte die Arbeit Domus Adriani (Hadrian's Alexandrian Gardens) für GBP 1.375,00 (€ 1.569,94) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Akim Monet mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Cave Cathedral beobachtet, die im November 2006 für USD 6.600,00 (€ 4.977,00) versteigert wurde.
