Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Minnie Evans could be acquired at Christies in New York in January 2003 for an unexpectedly low price. In the 20TH CENTURY SELF-TAUGHT AND OUTSIDER ART auction, the work Untitled (Design with Angels and Sunset) changed hands for USD 5,975.00 (€ 5,563.83) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Admittedly, works by Minnie Evans have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Voice of the Third Angel in January this year with an auction result of USD 42,840.00 (€ 39,454.78).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Minnie Evans konnte im Januar 2003 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion 20TH CENTURY SELF-TAUGHT AND OUTSIDER ART wechselte die Arbeit Untitled (Design with Angels and Sunset) für USD 5.975,00 (€ 5.563,83) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Minnie Evans auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Voice of the Third Angel im Januar diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 42.840,00 (€ 39.454,78).
