Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Montgomery Clift, "Raintree County" for M.G.M. by Bob Willoughby was auctioned at Bonhams in February this year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 76.50 (€ 72.16). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Bob Willoughby achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Audrey Hepburn and Assam on the set of the 1964 Warner Bros. production My Fair Lady, Burbank, 1963 in September 2017 with an auction result of GBP 6,875.00 (€ 7,799.78).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Montgomery Clift, "Raintree County" for M.G.M. von Bob Willoughby im Februar diesen Jahres bei Bonhams versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 76,50 (€ 72,16) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Bob Willoughby erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Audrey Hepburn and Assam on the set of the 1964 Warner Bros. production My Fair Lady, Burbank, 1963 im September 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.875,00 (€ 7.799,78).
