Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2020 Sothebys in New York held the auction Legends, Landscapes, and Lovelies | Photographs, which included the work Muscle Beach by Max Yavno. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 17,500.00 (€ 14,863.26) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by Max Yavno have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in October 2012 the work Muscle Beach was auctioned for USD 28,750.00 (€ 22,187.07).
