Auction result well in line with expectations

In May last year Bonhams in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work Hoosick Falls 14 1/2 x 19 7/8 in. (36.8 x 50.5 cm.) by Grandma Moses. The price achieved of USD 78,495.00 (€ 73,147.89) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 70,000.00 – 100,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Grandma Moses achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Sugaring Off in November 2006 with an auction result of USD 1,360,000.00 (€ 1,025,563.68).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Mai letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Hoosick Falls 14 1/2 x 19 7/8 in. (36.8 x 50.5 cm.) von Grandma Moses zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 78.495,00 (€ 73.147,89) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 70.000,00 – 100.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Grandma Moses erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Sugaring Off im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.360.000,00 (€ 1.025.563,68).
