Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Alexander Helwig Wyant could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in September 2020 for an unexpectedly low price. In the American Art auction, the work A Cloudy Day changed hands for USD 3,024.00 (€ 2,580.65) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alexander Helwig Wyant achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hudson River View in May 2007 with an auction result of USD 84,000.00 (€ 62,439.60).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Alexander Helwig Wyant konnte im September 2020 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion American Art wechselte die Arbeit A Cloudy Day für USD 3.024,00 (€ 2.580,65) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alexander Helwig Wyant erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Hudson River View im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 84.000,00 (€ 62.439,60).
