Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Drinking Woman, From Photo Anecdotes Series by Aleksandras Macijauskas was auctioned at Sothebys in London in June 2013, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 1,375.00 (€ 1,604.87). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Aleksandras Macijauskas - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Two Works From Lithuanian Village Markets Series; Untitled, From Veterinary Clinics Series, which sold at auction in June 2013 for GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,668.72).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Drinking Woman, From Photo Anecdotes Series von Aleksandras Macijauskas im Juni 2013 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 1.375,00 (€ 1.604,87) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Aleksandras Macijauskas mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Two Works From Lithuanian Village Markets Series; Untitled, From Veterinary Clinics Series beobachtet, die im Juni 2013 für GBP 4.000,00 (€ 4.668,72) versteigert wurde.
