A top price for Henry Campotosto - as previously expected

The work The Bird's Nest by Henry Campotosto was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2008. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 35,000.00 – 45,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 37,500.00 (€ 29,569.47) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Bird's Nest is the most expensive artwork by Henry Campotosto that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Die Arbeit The Bird's Nest von Henry Campotosto kam im Oktober 2008 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 35.000,00 – 45.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 37.500,00 (€ 29.569,47) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Bird's Nest das teuerste Kunstwerk von Henry Campotosto, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
