Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Biblical Scenes by Ilya Schor was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in December 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 800.00 – 1,200.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 378.00 (€ 333.98). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ilya Schor achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Scenes Of Shtetl Life: A Set Of Ten Gouaches in December 2011 with an auction result of USD 11,875.00 (€ 9,153.63).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Biblical Scenes von Ilya Schor im Dezember 2021 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 378,00 (€ 333,98) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ilya Schor erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Scenes Of Shtetl Life: A Set Of Ten Gouaches im Dezember 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 11.875,00 (€ 9.153,63).
