Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
When the work Head of a Lamb by Menashe Kadishman was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 2,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at USD 8,190.00 (€ 6,974.37). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Menashe Kadishman achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Birds. in June 2021 with an auction result of EUR 70,950.00.
Kunstwerk zum Vierfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Head of a Lamb von Menashe Kadishman im März 2021 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 2.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 8.190,00 (€ 6.974,37) mehr als viermal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Menashe Kadishman erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Birds. im Juni 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 70.950,00.
