In October 2001 Christies in New York held the auction American Paintings and Sculpture, which included the work Factories at Night by Aaron Harry Gorson. The »bidding war« ended at USD 25,850.00 (€ 28,744.58), 72% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Aaron Harry Gorson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait Of A Steel Mill, Pennsylvania, which sold at auction in December 2013 for USD 92,500.00 (€ 67,131.14).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 72 % übertroffen
Im Oktober 2001 führte Christies in New York die Auktion American Paintings and Sculpture durch, in der auch die Arbeit Factories at Night von Aaron Harry Gorson zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 25.850,00 (€ 28.744,58) und damit 72% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Aaron Harry Gorson mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait Of A Steel Mill, Pennsylvania beobachtet, die im Dezember 2013 für USD 92.500,00 (€ 67.131,14) versteigert wurde.
