Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Ron Mueck could be acquired at Phillips in New York in May 2018 for an unexpectedly low price. In the 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale auction, the work Man in Blankets changed hands for USD 447,000.00 (€ 383,033.42) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 500,000.00 – 700,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ron Mueck - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Big Baby, which sold at auction in June 2011 for GBP 825,250.00 (€ 912,985.73).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

In der Auktion 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale wechselte die Arbeit Man in Blankets für USD 447.000,00 (€ 383.033,42) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 500.000,00 – 700.000,00.
