Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Mujer Con Peces by Amelia Peláez was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in November 2016. The result of USD 125,000.00 (€ 118,169.79) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 125,000.00 – 175,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Amelia Peláez - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Las Hermanas, which sold at auction in May 2013 for USD 569,000.00 (€ 438,096.70).

Die Arbeit Mujer Con Peces von Amelia Peláez kam im November 2016 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 125.000,00 (€ 118.169,79) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 125.000,00 – 175.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Amelia Peláez mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Las Hermanas beobachtet, die im Mai 2013 für USD 569.000,00 (€ 438.096,70) versteigert wurde.
