Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work A Bun For Tea (From The Apartment N.22 Series) by Victor Pivovarov was auctioned at Sothebys in London in June 2009, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 39,650.00 (€ 46,527.95). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Victor Pivovarov - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Triptych with a Snake, which sold at auction in October 2008 for GBP 145,250.00 (€ 185,141.64).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit A Bun For Tea (From The Apartment N.22 Series) von Victor Pivovarov im Juni 2009 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 39.650,00 (€ 46.527,95) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Victor Pivovarov mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Triptych with a Snake beobachtet, die im Oktober 2008 für GBP 145.250,00 (€ 185.141,64) versteigert wurde.
