Sold at the lower estimate price
The work American Elephants Drinking by Bob Kuhn was sold in the The Sporting Sale: Equestrian, Wildlife & Maritime Art auction at Sothebys in New York in December 2008. The result of USD 30,000.00 (€ 21,553.27) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bob Kuhn achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Fire Storm in November 2007 with an auction result of USD 657,000.00 (€ 447,303.92).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit American Elephants Drinking von Bob Kuhn wurde im Dezember 2008 in der Auktion The Sporting Sale: Equestrian, Wildlife & Maritime Art bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 30.000,00 (€ 21.553,27) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bob Kuhn erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Fire Storm im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 657.000,00 (€ 447.303,92).
