Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Hollyhocks And Sunlight by Charles Courtney Curran was sold in the American Art auction at Sothebys in New York in November 2015. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 62,500.00 (€ 59,174.40) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles Courtney Curran - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ladies on a Hill, which sold at auction in April 2002 for USD 207,500.00 (€ 230,504.33).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Hollyhocks And Sunlight von Charles Courtney Curran wurde im November 2015 in der Auktion American Art bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 62.500,00 (€ 59.174,40) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Charles Courtney Curran mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Ladies on a Hill beobachtet, die im April 2002 für USD 207.500,00 (€ 230.504,33) versteigert wurde.
