Auction result well in line with expectations
In February this year Phillips in an online auction held the auction The Eye That Shapes: Further Selections from the Peter C. Bunnell Collection, which included the work Heart of Stone by Mário Cravo Neto. The price achieved of USD 2,268.00 (€ 2,139.22) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mário Cravo Neto - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Luciana, which sold at auction in November 2011 for USD 8,750.00 (€ 6,504.13).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Februar diesen Jahres führte Phillips in einer Online-Auktion die Auktion The Eye That Shapes: Further Selections from the Peter C. Bunnell Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Heart of Stone von Mário Cravo Neto zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 2.268,00 (€ 2.139,22) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Mário Cravo Neto mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Luciana beobachtet, die im November 2011 für USD 8.750,00 (€ 6.504,13) versteigert wurde.
