A top price for Faile - as previously expected
The work New York City 02 by Faile was sold in the Contemporary Day Auction auction at Sothebys in London in June 2009. The price achieved of GBP 49,250.00 (€ 57,793.22) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, New York City 02 is the most expensive artwork by Faile that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit New York City 02 von Faile wurde im Juni 2009 in der Auktion Contemporary Day Auction bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 49.250,00 (€ 57.793,22) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist New York City 02 das teuerste Kunstwerk von Faile, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
