Auction result misses estimated price range
In December 2009 a collector was able to acquire the work Industrial Plant by Edmund Lewandowski for USD 18,750.00 (€ 13,082.61). This price was achieved in the auction American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Edmund Lewandowski have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Studio Rooftop in April this year with an auction result of USD 63,000.00 (€ 57,065.22).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Dezember 2009 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Industrial Plant von Edmund Lewandowski für USD 18.750,00 (€ 13.082,61) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Edmund Lewandowski auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Studio Rooftop im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 63.000,00 (€ 57.065,22).
