Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Pair of Portraits: Mr. Jeremiah Russell and Mrs. Elizabeth Moose Russell by Ammi Phillips was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2005. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 50,000.00 – 70,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 51,600.00 (€ 41,784.76) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ammi Phillips achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of a Young Girl and her Cat in January 2007 with an auction result of USD 1,248,000.00 (€ 960,147.72).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A Pair of Portraits: Mr. Jeremiah Russell and Mrs. Elizabeth Moose Russell von Ammi Phillips kam im Mai 2005 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 50.000,00 – 70.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 51.600,00 (€ 41.784,76) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ammi Phillips erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of a Young Girl and her Cat im Januar 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.248.000,00 (€ 960.147,72).
