Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2016 Sothebys in New York held the auction Latin America: Modern Art | Latin America: Contemporary Art, which included this untitled work by Jose Mijares. The price achieved of USD 16,250.00 (€ 15,362.07) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jose Mijares - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Lo concreto en rojo, which sold at auction in May last year for USD 50,400.00 (€ 46,966.73).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2016 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Latin America: Modern Art | Latin America: Contemporary Art durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Jose Mijares zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 16.250,00 (€ 15.362,07) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Jose Mijares mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Lo concreto en rojo beobachtet, die im Mai letzten Jahres für USD 50.400,00 (€ 46.966,73) versteigert wurde.
