Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Ipswich Bridge; The Big Sky; And Nabby'S Point by Arthur Wesley Dow was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in October 2014, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 5,938.00 (€ 4,739.03). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Arthur Wesley Dow - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Moon Over The Hill, which sold at auction in October 2014 for USD 23,750.00 (€ 18,954.51).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Ipswich Bridge; The Big Sky; And Nabby'S Point von Arthur Wesley Dow im Oktober 2014 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 5.938,00 (€ 4.739,03) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Arthur Wesley Dow mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Moon Over The Hill beobachtet, die im Oktober 2014 für USD 23.750,00 (€ 18.954,51) versteigert wurde.
