Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Half-Dome, Merced River, Winter, 1938; And Jeffrey Pine, Sentinel Dome, Yosemite National Park, 1940 by Ansel Adams was sold in the The Range of Light: Photographs by Ansel Adams auction at Christies in New York in April 2014. It changed hands for a price of USD 11,250.00 (€ 8,111.03) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ansel Adams achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Grand Tetons and the Snake River, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming in December 2020 with an auction result of USD 988,000.00 (€ 807,849.55).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Half-Dome, Merced River, Winter, 1938; And Jeffrey Pine, Sentinel Dome, Yosemite National Park, 1940 von Ansel Adams wurde im April 2014 in der Auktion The Range of Light: Photographs by Ansel Adams bei Christies in New York versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 11.250,00 (€ 8.111,03) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ansel Adams erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Grand Tetons and the Snake River, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 988.000,00 (€ 807.849,55).
