Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Untitled #9 by Karel Funk was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2017, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 7,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 21,250.00 (€ 17,988.66). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Karel Funk; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Untitled #12 sold at auction in March 2017 with the realized price of USD 32,500.00 (€ 30,379.51).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Untitled #9 von Karel Funk im September 2017 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 7.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 21.250,00 (€ 17.988,66) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Karel Funk; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Untitled #12 im März 2017 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 32.500,00 (€ 30.379,51).
