Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Nickolas Muray could be acquired at Phillips in New York in September 2010 for an unexpectedly low price. In the LATIN AMERICA auction, the work Frida with Granizo changed hands for USD 2,500.00 (€ 1,838.10) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nickolas Muray achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Selected Images Including Portraits Of Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera And Miguel Covarrubias in April 2019 with an auction result of USD 35,000.00 (€ 31,247.21).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Nickolas Muray konnte im September 2010 bei Phillips in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion LATIN AMERICA wechselte die Arbeit Frida with Granizo für USD 2.500,00 (€ 1.838,10) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Nickolas Muray erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Selected Images Including Portraits Of Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera And Miguel Covarrubias im April 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 35.000,00 (€ 31.247,21).
