Auction result well in line with expectations

In September 2016 Christies in New York held the auction First Open | Post-War and Contemporary Art | NY, which included the work Sydney 98 by Beat Streuli. The price achieved of USD 5,000.00 (€ 4,449.19) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Beat Streuli - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ohne Titel (Junge Frau in weißem Shirt; aus USA-Serie), which sold at auction in June 2015 for EUR 8,925.00.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im September 2016 führte Christies in New York die Auktion First Open | Post-War and Contemporary Art | NY durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sydney 98 von Beat Streuli zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 5.000,00 (€ 4.449,19) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Beat Streuli mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Ohne Titel (Junge Frau in weißem Shirt; aus USA-Serie) beobachtet, die im Juni 2015 für EUR 8.925,00 versteigert wurde.
