Despite a disappointment, a good price for Jackie Ferrara
When the work Arrakis Blue by Jackie Ferrara was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in June 2013, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 5,938.00 (€ 4,564.18). Despite this disappointing result, Arrakis Blue is the most expensive artwork by Jackie Ferrara that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Jackie Ferrara
Als die Arbeit Arrakis Blue von Jackie Ferrara im Juni 2013 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 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 5.938,00 (€ 4.564,18) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Arrakis Blue das teuerste Kunstwerk von Jackie Ferrara, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
