Auction result well in line with expectations
In April 2000 Christies in New York held the auction Photographs, which included the work Georgia O'Keeffe; and Philip Johnson by Carl van Vechten. The price achieved of USD 2,585.00 (€ 2,844.10) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Carl van Vechten - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Man Ray, 1934, which sold at auction in November 2012 for EUR 6,250.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April 2000 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Photographs durch, in der auch die Arbeit Georgia O'Keeffe; and Philip Johnson von Carl van Vechten zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 2.585,00 (€ 2.844,10) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Carl van Vechten mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Man Ray, 1934 beobachtet, die im November 2012 für EUR 6.250,00 versteigert wurde.
