Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Assumption by Bo Bartlett was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 80,000.00 – 120,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 62,500.00 (€ 57,313.16). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bo Bartlett - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Hurtsboro, which sold at auction in May 2021 for USD 226,800.00 (€ 185,993.11).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Assumption von Bo Bartlett im September 2019 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 62.500,00 (€ 57.313,16) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Bo Bartlett mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Hurtsboro beobachtet, die im Mai 2021 für USD 226.800,00 (€ 185.993,11) versteigert wurde.
