Auction result well in line with expectations

The work The secret by Wilhelm Amberg was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2000. The price achieved of USD 9,400.00 (€ 10,077.19) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wilhelm Amberg - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Girl In A Blue Sash, which sold at auction in January 2010 for USD 28,125.00 (€ 20,277.58).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit The secret von Wilhelm Amberg kam im Mai 2000 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 9.400,00 (€ 10.077,19) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Wilhelm Amberg mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Girl In A Blue Sash beobachtet, die im Januar 2010 für USD 28.125,00 (€ 20.277,58) versteigert wurde.
