This artwork by Mario Joseph Korbel achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in June 2014. In the An American Dynasty: The Clark Family Treasures auction, the work Portrait Reliefs of Margaret Illington Bowes (1879-1934) and Major Edward Bowes (1874-1946) sold for USD 5,250.00 (€ 3,834.92) - well above the upper estimate of USD 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mario Joseph Korbel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Andante' (Dancing Girls) in September 2012 with an auction result of USD 62,500.00 (€ 48,615.43).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Mario Joseph Korbel erzielte im Juni 2014 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion An American Dynasty: The Clark Family Treasures wurde die Arbeit Portrait Reliefs of Margaret Illington Bowes (1879-1934) and Major Edward Bowes (1874-1946) für USD 5.250,00 (€ 3.834,92) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mario Joseph Korbel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Andante' (Dancing Girls) im September 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 62.500,00 (€ 48.615,43).
