Despite a disappointment, a good price for Carla Cerati
When the work Forma di dona (Female form), 1972 by Carla Cerati was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2012, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 5,000.00 (€ 6,191.19). Despite this disappointing result, Forma di dona (Female form), 1972 is the most expensive artwork by Carla Cerati that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Carla Cerati
Als die Arbeit Forma di dona (Female form), 1972 von Carla Cerati im Juni 2012 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 5.000,00 (€ 6.191,19) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Forma di dona (Female form), 1972 das teuerste Kunstwerk von Carla Cerati, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
