Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Ian Armstrong could be acquired at Christies in Melbourne in May 2004 for an unexpectedly low price. In the AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS auction, the work Mimi Liang changed hands for AUD 1,792.50 (€ 1,047.30) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of AUD 2,000.00 – 4,000.00. Admittedly, works by Ian Armstrong have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Mount Korong in November 2000 with an auction result of AUD 16,450.00 (€ 9,956.28).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Ian Armstrong konnte im Mai 2004 bei Christies in Melbourne für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS wechselte die Arbeit Mimi Liang für AUD 1.792,50 (€ 1.047,30) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von AUD 2.000,00 – 4.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Ian Armstrong auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Mount Korong im November 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 16.450,00 (€ 9.956,28).
