Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Abstract Construction #3 by Vaclav Vytlacil was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in April 2015, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 4,500.00 (€ 4,031.54). Admittedly, works by Vaclav Vytlacil have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Still Life with Fish in September 2007 with an auction result of USD 27,400.00 (€ 19,269.99).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Abstract Construction #3 von Vaclav Vytlacil im April 2015 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 4.500,00 (€ 4.031,54) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Vaclav Vytlacil auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Still Life with Fish im September 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 27.400,00 (€ 19.269,99).
