Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Ben Osaghae could be acquired at Phillips in New York in May 2010 for an unexpectedly low price. In the AFRICA Theme Sale auction, the work Harvest of Pestles changed hands for USD 3,750.00 (€ 3,031.77) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ben Osaghae - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work In Brotherhood We Stand, which sold at auction in May 2017 for GBP 5,625.00 (€ 6,460.54).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Ben Osaghae konnte im Mai 2010 bei Phillips in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion AFRICA Theme Sale wechselte die Arbeit Harvest of Pestles für USD 3.750,00 (€ 3.031,77) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Ben Osaghae mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit In Brotherhood We Stand beobachtet, die im Mai 2017 für GBP 5.625,00 (€ 6.460,54) versteigert wurde.
