A top price for Lajos Márk - as previously expected
The work Portrait of the Wife and Daughter of the Governor of Louisiana by Lajos Márk was sold in the The House Sale auction at Christies in New York in April 2007. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 3,120.00 (€ 2,284.04) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait of the Wife and Daughter of the Governor of Louisiana is the most expensive artwork by Lajos Márk that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Portrait of the Wife and Daughter of the Governor of Louisiana von Lajos Márk wurde im April 2007 in der Auktion The House Sale bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 3.120,00 (€ 2.284,04) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Portrait of the Wife and Daughter of the Governor of Louisiana das teuerste Kunstwerk von Lajos Márk, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
