Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2013 Sothebys in New York held the auction Latin American Art, which included this untitled work by Roberto Burle Marx. The price achieved of USD 50,000.00 (€ 36,748.49) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Roberto Burle Marx - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Grande Naturaleza Morta, which sold at auction in May 2011 for USD 158,500.00 (€ 110,253.20).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2013 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Latin American Art durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Roberto Burle Marx zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 50.000,00 (€ 36.748,49) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Roberto Burle Marx mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Grande Naturaleza Morta beobachtet, die im Mai 2011 für USD 158.500,00 (€ 110.253,20) versteigert wurde.
