Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In December 2014 Sothebys in New York held the auction Israeli & International Art, which included the work Yellow Negev by Mordecai Ardon. Here, the upper estimate of USD 350,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 377,000.00 (€ 311,544.50). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mordecai Ardon - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Awakening, which sold at auction in December 2014 for USD 821,000.00 (€ 678,456.33).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Dezember 2014 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Israeli & International Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Yellow Negev von Mordecai Ardon zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 350.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 377.000,00 (€ 311.544,50) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Mordecai Ardon mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Awakening beobachtet, die im Dezember 2014 für USD 821.000,00 (€ 678.456,33) versteigert wurde.
