Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Untitled, 1937 by Arnold Eagle was sold in the Photographs Including Crossing America: Photographs from The Consolidated Freightways Collection, Part II auction at Christies in New York in December 2011. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 1,200.00 – 1,800.00, the actual price achieved of USD 1,250.00 (€ 963.54) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Arnold Eagle have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work One Third of a Nation: A Social Document, 1938 in October 2008 with an auction result of USD 7,500.00 (€ 5,913.89).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Untitled, 1937 von Arnold Eagle wurde im Dezember 2011 in der Auktion Photographs Including Crossing America: Photographs from The Consolidated Freightways Collection, Part II bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.200,00 – 1.800,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 1.250,00 (€ 963,54) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Arnold Eagle auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit One Third of a Nation: A Social Document, 1938 im Oktober 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.500,00 (€ 5.913,89).
