Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Moment Of Eternity by Francisco Infante was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2011, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,148.68). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Francisco Infante achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Design For A Spiral 2 in March 2008 with an auction result of GBP 72,500.00 (€ 91,077.98).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Moment Of Eternity von Francisco Infante im Juni 2011 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.148,68) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Francisco Infante erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Design For A Spiral 2 im März 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 72.500,00 (€ 91.077,98).
