This artwork by Yoan Capote achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May 2019. In the Latin American Art Online auction, the work In love (After Brancusi) sold for USD 12,500.00 (€ 11,211.77) - well above the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yoan Capote achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Isla (in memoriam) in September last year with an auction result of USD 201,600.00 (€ 206,071.76).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 79 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Yoan Capote erzielte im Mai 2019 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Latin American Art Online wurde die Arbeit In love (After Brancusi) für USD 12.500,00 (€ 11.211,77) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yoan Capote erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Isla (in memoriam) im September letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 201.600,00 (€ 206.071,76).
