Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Magdalena Abakanowicz could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in October 2020 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Contemporary Art auction, the work Self Portrait changed hands for USD 17,640.00 (€ 15,145.53) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 18,000.00 – 25,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Magdalena Abakanowicz achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Flock (12 Standing Figures, from 'Ragazzi' Cycle) in November 2017 with an auction result of USD 480,500.00 (€ 403,849.39).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Magdalena Abakanowicz konnte im Oktober 2020 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Contemporary Art wechselte die Arbeit Self Portrait für USD 17.640,00 (€ 15.145,53) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 18.000,00 – 25.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Magdalena Abakanowicz erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Flock (12 Standing Figures, from 'Ragazzi' Cycle) im November 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 480.500,00 (€ 403.849,39).
