Sold at the lower estimate price

In November 2014 Sothebys in London held the auction Czech Avant-Garde Art from the Roy and Mary Cullen Collection, which included the work Czech A Collection Of Five Works Typographically Designed By Him, 1928-1929, Comprising: by Karel Teige. The result of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,257.28) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Karel Teige achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Czech Untitled (Bez Názvu) in November 2014 with an auction result of GBP 74,500.00 (€ 93,667.07).

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis

Im November 2014 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Czech Avant-Garde Art from the Roy and Mary Cullen Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Czech A Collection Of Five Works Typographically Designed By Him, 1928-1929, Comprising: von Karel Teige zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.257,28) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Karel Teige erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Czech Untitled (Bez Názvu) im November 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 74.500,00 (€ 93.667,07).
