Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Reading From The Koran by Antonio María Fabrés y Costa was sold in the 19th Century European Art auction at Sothebys in New York in January 2020. The result of USD 20,000.00 (€ 18,029.39) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Antonio María Fabrés y Costa achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Guard in April 2015 with an auction result of USD 545,000.00 (€ 488,263.75).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Reading From The Koran von Antonio María Fabrés y Costa wurde im Januar 2020 in der Auktion 19th Century European Art bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 20.000,00 (€ 18.029,39) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Antonio María Fabrés y Costa erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Guard im April 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 545.000,00 (€ 488.263,75).
