Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work David Bowie, "Aladdin Sane, Eyes Open" Contact Sheet by Brian Duffy was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in October 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 27,812.50 (€ 24,075.92). Other works by Brian Duffy have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in October 2021 by the work David Bowie, "Aladdin Sane" (Eyes Open) at USD 47,812.50 (€ 41,388.94).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit David Bowie, "Aladdin Sane, Eyes Open" Contact Sheet von Brian Duffy im Oktober 2021 bei Bonhams in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 27.812,50 (€ 24.075,92) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Brian Duffy wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im Oktober 2021 die Arbeit David Bowie, "Aladdin Sane" (Eyes Open) mit USD 47.812,50 (€ 41.388,94).
