A top price for Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle
When the work Le Baiser/The Kiss I by Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2006, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 3,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than eight times as high at USD 26,400.00 (€ 20,571.96). This high result makes Le Baiser/The Kiss I the most expensive artwork by Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle
Als die Arbeit Le Baiser/The Kiss I von Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle im Mai 2006 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 3.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 26.400,00 (€ 20.571,96) mehr als achtmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Le Baiser/The Kiss I zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
