Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of A Man Holding The "Telegraph" by Ammi Phillips was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2004. The price achieved of USD 11,352.50 (€ 8,906.72) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. 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 Portrait of A Man Holding The "Telegraph" von Ammi Phillips kam im Oktober 2004 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 11.352,50 (€ 8.906,72) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. 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).
