Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2018 Bonhams in New York held the auction Little AcornsPhotographs Online, which included the work Martha Graham, "Letter To The World" (Kick) by Barbara Morgan. It changed hands for a price of USD 1,875.00 (€ 1,636.70) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Barbara Morgan achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Martha Graham – "Letter To The World" (Kick)' in April 2020 with an auction result of USD 25,000.00 (€ 22,820.63).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2018 führte Bonhams in New York die Auktion Little AcornsPhotographs Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Martha Graham, "Letter To The World" (Kick) von Barbara Morgan zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 1.875,00 (€ 1.636,70) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Barbara Morgan erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Martha Graham – "Letter To The World" (Kick)' im April 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 25.000,00 (€ 22.820,63).
