Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Abstract, 2016 by Esther Mahlangu was auctioned at Sothebys in London in March last year. It changed hands for a price of GBP 3,276.00 (€ 3,884.07) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Esther Mahlangu achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Ndebele Abstract in July this year with an auction result of GBP 50,400.00 (€ 58,801.52).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Abstract, 2016 von Esther Mahlangu kam im März letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 3.276,00 (€ 3.884,07) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.500,00 – 3.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Esther Mahlangu erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Ndebele Abstract im Juli diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 50.400,00 (€ 58.801,52).
