Auction result well in line with expectations
In August last year Bonhams in New York held the auction PhotographsSummer Cut, which included the work Amigos, Che Guevara and Fidel Castro Fishing by Alberto Korda. The price achieved of USD 1,275.00 (€ 1,266.77) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Admittedly, works by Alberto Korda have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Guerrillero Heroico (Che Guevara), 5/30/1960 in March 2015 with an auction result of USD 11,250.00 (€ 10,473.89).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im August letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in New York die Auktion PhotographsSummer Cut durch, in der auch die Arbeit Amigos, Che Guevara and Fidel Castro Fishing von Alberto Korda zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.275,00 (€ 1.266,77) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Alberto Korda auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Guerrillero Heroico (Che Guevara), 5/30/1960 im März 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 11.250,00 (€ 10.473,89).
