Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work In The Upper Sky by Angelo Filomeno was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2011, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 5,000.00 (€ 3,717.75). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Angelo Filomeno achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Venom in February 2008 with an auction result of GBP 30,500.00 (€ 39,892.80).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit In The Upper Sky von Angelo Filomeno im September 2011 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 5.000,00 (€ 3.717,75) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Angelo Filomeno erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Venom im Februar 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 30.500,00 (€ 39.892,80).
