Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Max Weber achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in November 2018. In the An American Place | The Barney A. Ebsworth Collection Day Sale auction, the work Still Life sold for USD 32,500.00 (€ 28,702.64) - well above the upper estimate of USD 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Max Weber achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work New York in May 2016 with an auction result of USD 1,925,000.00 (€ 1,728,783.12).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Max Weber erzielte im November 2018 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion An American Place | The Barney A. Ebsworth Collection Day Sale wurde die Arbeit Still Life für USD 32.500,00 (€ 28.702,64) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 15.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Max Weber erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit New York im Mai 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.925.000,00 (€ 1.728.783,12).
