A top price for Fernando Castillo - as previously expected
The work Mi Familia by Fernando Castillo was sold in the Latin American Art auction at Sothebys in New York in May 2008. The price achieved of USD 15,000.00 (€ 9,640.10) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Mi Familia is the most expensive artwork by Fernando Castillo that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Mi Familia von Fernando Castillo wurde im Mai 2008 in der Auktion Latin American Art bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 15.000,00 (€ 9.640,10) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Mi Familia das teuerste Kunstwerk von Fernando Castillo, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
