Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Charles Marion Russell could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in November 2019 for an unexpectedly low price. In the American Art auction, the work The Stage Ahead Of Us Had Been Attacked By Indians And Burned (Indian Attack) changed hands for USD 225,000.00 (€ 204,192.76) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 250,000.00 – 350,000.00. Admittedly, works by Charles Marion Russell have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Meat for the Tribe in December 2005 with an auction result of USD 1,472,000.00 (€ 1,243,033.27).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles Marion Russell konnte im November 2019 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion American Art wechselte die Arbeit The Stage Ahead Of Us Had Been Attacked By Indians And Burned (Indian Attack) für USD 225.000,00 (€ 204.192,76) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 250.000,00 – 350.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Charles Marion Russell auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Meat for the Tribe im Dezember 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.472.000,00 (€ 1.243.033,27).
