Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Folk Jam (Cocksucker Blues Bootleg) by Mungo Thomson was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in December 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 1,000.00 – 2,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 625.00 (€ 556.69). Other works by Mungo Thomson have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in July 2019 by the work Clipping at USD 750.00 (€ 673.85).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Folk Jam (Cocksucker Blues Bootleg) von Mungo Thomson im Dezember 2019 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.000,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 625,00 (€ 556,69) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Mungo Thomson wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im Juli 2019 die Arbeit Clipping mit USD 750,00 (€ 673,85).
