Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Explosion #28 by Charles Gaines was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2018. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 43,750.00 (€ 37,489.29) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Gaines achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Numbers And Trees: Central Park Series Iv: Tree #6, Carmichael in May 2019 with an auction result of USD 475,000.00 (€ 426,047.18).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Explosion #28 von Charles Gaines kam im Mai 2018 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 43.750,00 (€ 37.489,29) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Gaines erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Numbers And Trees: Central Park Series Iv: Tree #6, Carmichael im Mai 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 475.000,00 (€ 426.047,18).
