Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Square Meals (From New York Series) by Michael Wesely was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2018. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 8,750.00 (€ 7,102.27) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Michael Wesely - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work „Point Lobos“., which sold at auction in October 2018 for EUR 25,000.00.
