Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Tartarian Cherries by Alfred Henry Maurer was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in July 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 6,875.00 (€ 6,177.00). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alfred Henry Maurer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Woman In White in May 2011 with an auction result of USD 590,500.00 (€ 410,754.03).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Tartarian Cherries von Alfred Henry Maurer im Juli 2019 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 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 6.875,00 (€ 6.177,00) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alfred Henry Maurer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Woman In White im Mai 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 590.500,00 (€ 410.754,03).
