This artwork by Michael Loew achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in July 2007. In the Open House auction, the work Hop-Skip sold for USD 11,400.00 (€ 8,314.49) - well above the upper estimate of USD 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Michael Loew - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work New York, N.Y., which sold at auction in July 2020 for GBP 25,000.00 (€ 27,885.60).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Michael Loew erzielte im Juli 2007 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Open House wurde die Arbeit Hop-Skip für USD 11.400,00 (€ 8.314,49) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 5.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Michael Loew mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit New York, N.Y. beobachtet, die im Juli 2020 für GBP 25.000,00 (€ 27.885,60) versteigert wurde.
