Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Portrait of Ada Propper by Stanislaw Ignacy Witkiewicz was auctioned at Christies in New York in June 2017. The price achieved of USD 12,500.00 (€ 10,954.34) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Stanislaw Ignacy Witkiewicz achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Weibliches Portrait in June 2021 with an auction result of EUR 112,500.00.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Portrait of Ada Propper von Stanislaw Ignacy Witkiewicz kam im Juni 2017 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 12.500,00 (€ 10.954,34) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Stanislaw Ignacy Witkiewicz erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Weibliches Portrait im Juni 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 112.500,00.
