Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Andreas Gursky could be acquired at Phillips in London in October 2019 for an unexpectedly low price. In the 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale auction, the work Klitschko changed hands for GBP 399,000.00 (€ 462,811.39) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 500,000.00 – 700,000.00. Admittedly, works by Andreas Gursky have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work 99 Cent Ii, Diptych in February 2007 with an auction result of GBP 1,700,000.00 (€ 2,520,188.96).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Andreas Gursky konnte im Oktober 2019 bei Phillips in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale wechselte die Arbeit Klitschko für GBP 399.000,00 (€ 462.811,39) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 500.000,00 – 700.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Andreas Gursky auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit 99 Cent Ii, Diptych im Februar 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.700.000,00 (€ 2.520.188,96).
