Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Fairies Dance in Moonlight by Karina Ami was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 1,512.00 (€ 1,287.58). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Karina Ami - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Witch, which sold at auction in March 2021 for USD 5,670.00 (€ 4,828.41).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Fairies Dance in Moonlight von Karina Ami im März 2021 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 500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 1.512,00 (€ 1.287,58) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Karina Ami mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Witch beobachtet, die im März 2021 für USD 5.670,00 (€ 4.828,41) versteigert wurde.
