Despite a disappointment, a good price for Carl Carlsen
When the work In The Auction House by Carl Carlsen was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in November 2015, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 70,000.00 – 90,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 60,000.00 (€ 56,807.42). Despite this disappointing result, In The Auction House is the most expensive artwork by Carl Carlsen that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Carl Carlsen
Als die Arbeit In The Auction House von Carl Carlsen im November 2015 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 70.000,00 – 90.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 60.000,00 (€ 56.807,42) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist In The Auction House das teuerste Kunstwerk von Carl Carlsen, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
