A top price for Alfredo Hlito

When the work Elementos Cromáticos by Alfredo Hlito was auctioned at Christies in New York in November 2015, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 70,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at USD 365,000.00 (€ 345,578.49). This high result makes Elementos Cromáticos the most expensive artwork by Alfredo Hlito that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis für Alfredo Hlito

Als die Arbeit Elementos Cromáticos von Alfredo Hlito im November 2015 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 70.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 365.000,00 (€ 345.578,49) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Elementos Cromáticos zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Alfredo Hlito, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
