Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.
In November 2018 Christies in New York held the auction Selections from the Israel Museum, Jerusalem Sold to Benefit the Acquisitions Fund, which included the work Studio per una testa by Mario Negri. The »bidding war« ended at USD 3,000.00 (€ 2,649.47), 50% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mario Negri achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tutta una vita insieme in June 2018 with an auction result of EUR 42,000.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 50 % übertroffen
Im November 2018 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Selections from the Israel Museum, Jerusalem Sold to Benefit the Acquisitions Fund durch, in der auch die Arbeit Studio per una testa von Mario Negri zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 3.000,00 (€ 2.649,47) und damit 50% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mario Negri erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tutta una vita insieme im Juni 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 42.000,00.
