Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Maurice Sterne could be acquired at Christies in New York in June 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Seated figures; and two companion drawings changed hands for USD 312.50 (€ 198.44) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,200.00 – 1,800.00. Admittedly, works by Maurice Sterne have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Four Balinese women in September 2008 with an auction result of USD 2,000.00 (€ 1,420.35).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Maurice Sterne konnte im Juni 2008 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wechselte die Arbeit Seated figures; and two companion drawings für USD 312,50 (€ 198,44) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.200,00 – 1.800,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Maurice Sterne auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Four Balinese women im September 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.000,00 (€ 1.420,35).
