Despite a disappointment, a good price for Alastair D. Houston

In July 2004 a collector was able to acquire the work The big reacher by Alastair D. Houston for USD 2,390.00 (€ 1,986.37). This price was achieved in the auction Maritime at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, The big reacher is the most expensive artwork by Alastair D. Houston that we have observed at auction so far.

Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Alastair D. Houston

Im Juli 2004 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The big reacher von Alastair D. Houston für USD 2.390,00 (€ 1.986,37) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Maritime bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist The big reacher das teuerste Kunstwerk von Alastair D. Houston, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
