Despite a disappointment, a good price for Mickey Pallas
When the work Buick Convertible, Chicago, 1959 by Mickey Pallas was auctioned at Christies in New York in April 2011, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 1,625.00 (€ 1,096.42). Despite this disappointing result, Buick Convertible, Chicago, 1959 is the most expensive artwork by Mickey Pallas that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Mickey Pallas
Als die Arbeit Buick Convertible, Chicago, 1959 von Mickey Pallas im April 2011 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 1.625,00 (€ 1.096,42) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Buick Convertible, Chicago, 1959 das teuerste Kunstwerk von Mickey Pallas, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
