Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Ulisse Caputo could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in October 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the 19th Century European Art including The Orientalist Sale auction, the work Italian A Busy Street changed hands for USD 15,000.00 (€ 11,827.79) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ulisse Caputo - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work At the dressing table, which sold at auction in April 2000 for GBP 17,625.00 (€ 30,173.29).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Ulisse Caputo konnte im Oktober 2008 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion 19th Century European Art including The Orientalist Sale wechselte die Arbeit Italian A Busy Street für USD 15.000,00 (€ 11.827,79) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Ulisse Caputo mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit At the dressing table beobachtet, die im April 2000 für GBP 17.625,00 (€ 30.173,29) versteigert wurde.
