Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Boy looking at Car mirror. by Leon Levinstein was auctioned at Grisebach in December 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of EUR 2,500.00 – 4,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for EUR 1,362.00. Admittedly, works by Leon Levinstein have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Coney Island, 1975 in February 2007 with an auction result of USD 8,400.00 (€ 6,349.21).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Boy looking at Car mirror. von Leon Levinstein im Dezember 2021 bei Grisebach versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von EUR 2.500,00 – 4.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für EUR 1.362,00 den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Leon Levinstein auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Coney Island, 1975 im Februar 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 8.400,00 (€ 6.349,21).
