Sold at the lower estimate price
In July 2018 Christies in New York held the auction First Open Online: Post-War and Contemporary Art, which included the work Void Puppet by Michael Williams. The result of USD 30,000.00 (€ 25,627.88) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Michael Williams - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Scott Whatever 2, which sold at auction in November 2015 for USD 93,750.00 (€ 88,761.60).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Juli 2018 führte Christies in New York die Auktion First Open Online: Post-War and Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Void Puppet von Michael Williams zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 30.000,00 (€ 25.627,88) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Michael Williams mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Scott Whatever 2 beobachtet, die im November 2015 für USD 93.750,00 (€ 88.761,60) versteigert wurde.
