Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Back From by Mark Schlesinger was auctioned at Christies in New York in February 2020, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 1,500.00 (€ 1,360.54). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mark Schlesinger - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Off From, which sold at auction in July 2019 for USD 3,250.00 (€ 2,920.04).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Back From von Mark Schlesinger im Februar 2020 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 1.500,00 (€ 1.360,54) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Mark Schlesinger mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Off From beobachtet, die im Juli 2019 für USD 3.250,00 (€ 2.920,04) versteigert wurde.
