The work Love Form by Manuel Carbonell was sold in the Latin American Sale auction at Christies in New York in November 2005. The »bidding war« ended at USD 22,800.00 (€ 19,338.42), 27% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Manuel Carbonell - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mother Embracing Child, which sold at auction in November 2008 for USD 50,000.00 (€ 39,388.69).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 27 % übertroffen
