Auction result well in line with expectations
In March last year Christies in New York held the auction Post-War to Present, which included the work Hephaistos Above, Aphrodite Below by Alfred Jensen. The price achieved of USD 52,920.00 (€ 47,705.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Admittedly, works by Alfred Jensen have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Heaven; Per I and II in September 2013 with an auction result of USD 477,750.00 (€ 352,973.77).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion Post-War to Present durch, in der auch die Arbeit Hephaistos Above, Aphrodite Below von Alfred Jensen zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 52.920,00 (€ 47.705,76) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Alfred Jensen auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Heaven; Per I and II im September 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 477.750,00 (€ 352.973,77).
