A top price for Mercedes Pardo - as previously expected
The work Un pequeño sobresalto by Mercedes Pardo was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in November 2021. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 80,000.00 – 120,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 88,200.00 (€ 78,143.00) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Un pequeño sobresalto is the most expensive artwork by Mercedes Pardo that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Un pequeño sobresalto von Mercedes Pardo kam im November 2021 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 88.200,00 (€ 78.143,00) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Un pequeño sobresalto das teuerste Kunstwerk von Mercedes Pardo, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
