Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Benny Andrews could be acquired at Bonhams in New York in September this year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Prints & Photographs | Bonhams Skinner auction, the work Two Works from the Sexism Series: Sexist (Sexism Study), Boxer (Sexism Study) changed hands for USD 384.00 (€ 362.81) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 600.00 – 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Benny Andrews achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Bath in May last year with an auction result of USD 9,450.00 (€ 8,806.26).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Benny Andrews konnte im September diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Prints & Photographs | Bonhams Skinner wechselte die Arbeit Two Works from the Sexism Series: Sexist (Sexism Study), Boxer (Sexism Study) für USD 384,00 (€ 362,81) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 600,00 – 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Benny Andrews erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Bath im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 9.450,00 (€ 8.806,26).
