Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2016 Christies in New York held the auction Living With Art, which included the work Lost Boy by Nicholas Africano. It changed hands for a price of USD 1,375.00 (€ 1,231.20) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nicholas Africano achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Woman with Fruit in July 2007 with an auction result of USD 27,600.00 (€ 20,129.82).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2016 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Living With Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Lost Boy von Nicholas Africano zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 1.375,00 (€ 1.231,20) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Nicholas Africano erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Woman with Fruit im Juli 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 27.600,00 (€ 20.129,82).
