Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Karen Knorr could be acquired at Phillips in London in May 2018 for an unexpectedly low price. In the ULTIMATE Evening & Photographs Day Sales auction, the work The Invention of Tradition from The Connoisseurs changed hands for GBP 1,250.00 (€ 1,423.41) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Karen Knorr achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Ganesha’s Mount, Chavi Niwas, Jaipur' (from the series India Song), 2020 in November 2021 with an auction result of GBP 12,600.00 (€ 14,793.59).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Karen Knorr konnte im Mai 2018 bei Phillips in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion ULTIMATE Evening & Photographs Day Sales wechselte die Arbeit The Invention of Tradition from The Connoisseurs für GBP 1.250,00 (€ 1.423,41) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Karen Knorr erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Ganesha’s Mount, Chavi Niwas, Jaipur' (from the series India Song), 2020 im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 12.600,00 (€ 14.793,59).
