Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Ascension by Antonio Gattorno was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2018, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 3,750.00 (€ 3,213.37). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Antonio Gattorno achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Waiting for the Coffee Fragment of Bacardi Mural in June 2007 with an auction result of USD 120,000.00 (€ 88,757.40).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Ascension von Antonio Gattorno im Mai 2018 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 3.750,00 (€ 3.213,37) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Antonio Gattorno erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Waiting for the Coffee Fragment of Bacardi Mural im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 120.000,00 (€ 88.757,40).
