Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Alfredo Camisa could be acquired at Christies in London in June 2012 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Masterworks of Italian Photography 1945-1975 From the Collection of Paolo Morello auction, the work Uomini di Sicilia (Men of Sicily), 1957 changed hands for GBP 2,500.00 (€ 3,095.60) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Alfredo Camisa - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Studies Of Italian Life, 1950S, which sold at auction in October 2013 for GBP 7,500.00 (€ 8,864.94).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Alfredo Camisa konnte im Juni 2012 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Masterworks of Italian Photography 1945-1975 From the Collection of Paolo Morello wechselte die Arbeit Uomini di Sicilia (Men of Sicily), 1957 für GBP 2.500,00 (€ 3.095,60) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Alfredo Camisa mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Studies Of Italian Life, 1950S beobachtet, die im Oktober 2013 für GBP 7.500,00 (€ 8.864,94) versteigert wurde.
