Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Evillene's Latrine by Baker Overstreet was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in December 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 1,000.00 – 2,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 701.25 (€ 619.59). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Baker Overstreet achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Dirty Piller's Beauty Bumps in September 2015 with an auction result of USD 8,125.00 (€ 7,279.16).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Evillene's Latrine von Baker Overstreet im Dezember 2021 bei Bonhams in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.000,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 701,25 (€ 619,59) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Baker Overstreet erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Dirty Piller's Beauty Bumps im September 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 8.125,00 (€ 7.279,16).
