Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Fragments From Nowhere by Ulfert Wilke was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2015, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 5,000.00 – 6,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 2,500.00 (€ 2,273.97). Other works by Ulfert Wilke have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in April 2015 by the work Ancient World at USD 5,000.00 (€ 4,479.48).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Fragments From Nowhere von Ulfert Wilke im Mai 2015 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 5.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 2.500,00 (€ 2.273,97) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Ulfert Wilke wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im April 2015 die Arbeit Ancient World mit USD 5.000,00 (€ 4.479,48).
