Sold at the lower estimate price
In November 2015 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Art Day Auction, which included the work Magritte Ii by Marisol Escobar. The result of USD 250,000.00 (€ 236,697.60) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 250,000.00 – 350,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Marisol Escobar - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Andy, which sold at auction in May 2012 for USD 794,500.00 (€ 642,591.39).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im November 2015 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction durch, in der auch die Arbeit Magritte Ii von Marisol Escobar zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 250.000,00 (€ 236.697,60) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 250.000,00 – 350.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Marisol Escobar mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Andy beobachtet, die im Mai 2012 für USD 794.500,00 (€ 642.591,39) versteigert wurde.
