Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Magritte and his Easel (double image) by Duane Michals was auctioned at Phillips in New York in October this year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 3,048.00 (€ 2,884.18) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Duane Michals achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Portrait Of Andy Warhol' in April 2015 with an auction result of USD 35,000.00 (€ 31,356.39).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Magritte and his Easel (double image) von Duane Michals kam im Oktober diesen Jahres bei Phillips in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 3.048,00 (€ 2.884,18) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Duane Michals erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Portrait Of Andy Warhol' im April 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 35.000,00 (€ 31.356,39).
