Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Ilona Granet could be acquired at Christies in New York in July 2012 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Emily Post Street Signs changed hands for USD 500.00 (€ 406.01) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,500.00 – 2,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ilona Granet - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Curb Your Animal Instinct, which sold at auction in July 2006 for USD 1,200.00 (€ 940.14).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Ilona Granet konnte im Juli 2012 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wechselte die Arbeit Emily Post Street Signs für USD 500,00 (€ 406,01) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.500,00 – 2.500,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Ilona Granet mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Curb Your Animal Instinct beobachtet, die im Juli 2006 für USD 1.200,00 (€ 940,14) versteigert wurde.
