Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Eduard Ludwig could be acquired at Phillips in New York in December 2006 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Design & Design Art auction, the work Five architectural drawings, from a class taught by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe at the Bauhaus, Dessau, Germany changed hands for USD 2,400.00 (€ 1,818.60) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Eduard Ludwig - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Architectural construction set, which sold at auction in December 2006 for USD 5,040.00 (€ 3,819.05).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Eduard Ludwig konnte im Dezember 2006 bei Phillips in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Design & Design Art wechselte die Arbeit Five architectural drawings, from a class taught by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe at the Bauhaus, Dessau, Germany für USD 2.400,00 (€ 1.818,60) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Eduard Ludwig mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Architectural construction set beobachtet, die im Dezember 2006 für USD 5.040,00 (€ 3.819,05) versteigert wurde.
