Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Headless Animal by Henry Moore was sold in the Impressionist & Modern Day Sale auction at Christies in New York in May 2013. The result of USD 15,000.00 (€ 11,549.12) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Moore achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Reclining Figure: Festival in June 2016 with an auction result of GBP 24,722,500.00 (€ 29,675,067.53).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Headless Animal von Henry Moore wurde im Mai 2013 in der Auktion Impressionist & Modern Day Sale bei Christies in New York versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 15.000,00 (€ 11.549,12) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henry Moore erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Reclining Figure: Festival im Juni 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 24.722.500,00 (€ 29.675.067,53).
