Sold at the lower estimate price

The work Serie Carnaval: Máscaras by Mario Segundo Pérez was sold in the Latin American Art auction at Christies in New York in May 2015. The result of USD 15,000.00 (€ 13,643.81) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mario Segundo Pérez - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Nochecita estrellada, which sold at auction in November 2000 for USD 28,200.00 (€ 32,436.16).

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis

Die Arbeit Serie Carnaval: Máscaras von Mario Segundo Pérez wurde im Mai 2015 in der Auktion Latin American Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 15.000,00 (€ 13.643,81) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Mario Segundo Pérez mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Nochecita estrellada beobachtet, die im November 2000 für USD 28.200,00 (€ 32.436,16) versteigert wurde.
