Auction result misses estimated price range
In June 2019 a collector was able to acquire the work Martha Graham - Letter to the World by Barbara Morgan for USD 11,875.00 (€ 10,507.92). This price was achieved in the auction Artist | Icon | Inspiration: Women in Photography Presented with Peter Fetterman at Phillips in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Barbara Morgan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work 'Martha Graham – "Letter To The World" (Kick)', which sold at auction in April 2020 for USD 25,000.00 (€ 22,820.63).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juni 2019 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Martha Graham - Letter to the World von Barbara Morgan für USD 11.875,00 (€ 10.507,92) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Artist | Icon | Inspiration: Women in Photography Presented with Peter Fetterman bei Phillips in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Barbara Morgan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit 'Martha Graham – "Letter To The World" (Kick)' beobachtet, die im April 2020 für USD 25.000,00 (€ 22.820,63) versteigert wurde.
