Auction result misses estimated price range
In April 2013 a collector was able to acquire the work Edward Weston (Stroboscopic Portrait) by Gjon Mili for USD 2,813.00 (€ 2,136.24). This price was achieved in the auction The Modern Image: Photographs from an Important American Collection at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Gjon Mili have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Picasso Space Drawings, France, 1949 in October 2005 with an auction result of USD 22,800.00 (€ 19,007.92).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im April 2013 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Edward Weston (Stroboscopic Portrait) von Gjon Mili für USD 2.813,00 (€ 2.136,24) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion The Modern Image: Photographs from an Important American Collection bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Gjon Mili auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Picasso Space Drawings, France, 1949 im Oktober 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 22.800,00 (€ 19.007,92).
