Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work The Sewing Machine by Alvaro Guevara was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2011, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 750.00 (€ 875.55). Admittedly, works by Alvaro Guevara have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Tête-Á-Tête in December 2007 with an auction result of GBP 5,000.00 (€ 6,794.15).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit The Sewing Machine von Alvaro Guevara im November 2011 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 750,00 (€ 875,55) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Alvaro Guevara auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Tête-Á-Tête im Dezember 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 5.000,00 (€ 6.794,15).
