Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Half Dome, Merced River by Ansel Adams was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in April last year. It achieved a price of USD 6,048.00 (€ 5,739.77), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 21%. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Half Dome, Merced River von Ansel Adams kam im April letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 6.048,00 (€ 5.739,77) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 21%. 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).
