Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Foreign Shore by Anne Truitt was auctioned at Christies in New York in May last year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 50,000.00 – 70,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 48,000.00 (€ 44,730.22). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Anne Truitt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Autumn Dryad in November last year with an auction result of USD 567,000.00 (€ 549,258.94).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Foreign Shore von Anne Truitt im Mai letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 50.000,00 – 70.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 48.000,00 (€ 44.730,22) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Anne Truitt erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Autumn Dryad im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 567.000,00 (€ 549.258,94).
