Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Greed by Martin Mull was sold in the Contemporary Curated featuring works from the Collection of Joni Gordon of Newspace Gallery auction at Sothebys in New York in September 2014. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 4,375.00 (€ 3,464.52) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Martin Mull achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hero'S Welcome in November 2007 with an auction result of USD 73,000.00 (€ 49,700.44).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Greed von Martin Mull wurde im September 2014 in der Auktion Contemporary Curated featuring works from the Collection of Joni Gordon of Newspace Gallery bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 4.375,00 (€ 3.464,52) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Martin Mull erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Hero'S Welcome im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 73.000,00 (€ 49.700,44).
