Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work The Light Still Unaware It Was A Mistake To Choose This Road, The Light Still Trying To Get Out Of The Thick Branches Of This Dark Forest Near The Road And Nine Untitled Works. by Igor Savchenko was auctioned at Sothebys in London in June 2013, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 4,000.0 Other works by Igor Savchenko have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in June 2013 by the work The Next Day; The Struggle Against The Red Line And Ten Untitled Works at GBP 4,750.00 (€ 5,544.10).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit The Light Still Unaware It Was A Mistake To Choose This Road, The Light Still Trying To Get Out Of The Thick Branches Of This Dark Forest Near The Road And Nine Untitled Works. von Igor Savchenko im Juni 2013 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 4.000,00 (€ 4.668,72) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Igor Savchenko wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im Juni 2013 die Arbeit The Next Day; The Struggle Against The Red Line And Ten Untitled Works mit GBP 4.750,00 (€ 5.544,10).
