Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2017 Phillips in New York held the auction New Now: The Katayama Collection, which included the work Alan Bean at Sharp Crater with the Hand Tool Carrier; Photographed by Charles Conrad, Apollo 12, November 14-24, 1969, from the project Full Moon by Michael Light. The price achieved of USD 1,375.00 (€ 1,163.97) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,000.00 – 2,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Michael Light - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Composite of Harrison Schmitt and the Lunar Rover at "Split Rock", Photographed by Eugene Cernan, Apollo 17, December 7-19, 1972 from Full Moon, which sold at auction in November 2010 for GBP 3,375.00 (€ 4,033.12).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2017 führte Phillips in New York die Auktion New Now: The Katayama Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Alan Bean at Sharp Crater with the Hand Tool Carrier; Photographed by Charles Conrad, Apollo 12, November 14-24, 1969, from the project Full Moon von Michael Light zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.375,00 (€ 1.163,97) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 1.000,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Michael Light mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Composite of Harrison Schmitt and the Lunar Rover at "Split Rock", Photographed by Eugene Cernan, Apollo 17, December 7-19, 1972 from Full Moon beobachtet, die im November 2010 für GBP 3.375,00 (€ 4.033,12) versteigert wurde.
