Sold at the lower estimate price
In May 2014 Sothebys in London held the auction Photographs, which included the work 'Acrobats Rehearsing Their Act At The Great Golden Circus, Ahmedabad, India', 1990 'Hippopotamus And Performer, Great Rayman Circus, Madras, India', 1989 'Contortionist With Her Puppy, Sweety, Great Raj Kamal Circus, India', 1989 by Mary Ellen Mark. The result of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 3,687.10) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mary Ellen Mark - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Clayton Moore - The Former Lone Ranger At His Home - Los Angeles, California, which sold at auction in March 2015 for USD 15,000.00 (€ 13,965.18).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Mai 2014 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Photographs durch, in der auch die Arbeit 'Acrobats Rehearsing Their Act At The Great Golden Circus, Ahmedabad, India', 1990 'Hippopotamus And Performer, Great Rayman Circus, Madras, India', 1989 'Contortionist With Her Puppy, Sweety, Great Raj Kamal Circus, India', 1989 von Mary Ellen Mark zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 3.000,00 (€ 3.687,10) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Mary Ellen Mark mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Clayton Moore - The Former Lone Ranger At His Home - Los Angeles, California beobachtet, die im März 2015 für USD 15.000,00 (€ 13.965,18) versteigert wurde.
