Despite a disappointment, a good price for Benny Andrews
In May last year a collector was able to acquire the work The Bath by Benny Andrews for USD 9,450.00 (€ 8,806.26). This price was achieved in the auction Contemporary Day Auction at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, The Bath is the most expensive artwork by Benny Andrews that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Benny Andrews
Im Mai letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The Bath von Benny Andrews für USD 9.450,00 (€ 8.806,26) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Contemporary Day Auction bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist The Bath das teuerste Kunstwerk von Benny Andrews, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
