Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Fontes by Cildo Meireles was auctioned at Sothebys in London in June 2018. It achieved a price of GBP 23,750.00 (€ 26,841.55), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 19%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Cildo Meireles achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Rodos in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 641,000.00 (€ 583,045.30).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Fontes von Cildo Meireles kam im Juni 2018 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 23.750,00 (€ 26.841,55) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 19%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Cildo Meireles erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Rodos im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 641.000,00 (€ 583.045,30).
