This artwork by Childe Hassam achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in October last year. In the The Ann & Gordon Getty Collection: Volume 2 |Old Master, 19th and 20th Century Paintings, Day Sale auction, the work Gate Of The Alhambra sold for USD 277,200.00 (€ 279,041.68) - well above the upper estimate of USD 120,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Childe Hassam achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Flags On 57Th Street, Winter 1918 in May 2021 with an auction result of USD 12,328,500.00 (€ 10,110,300.15).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Childe Hassam erzielte im Oktober letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The Ann & Gordon Getty Collection: Volume 2 |Old Master, 19th and 20th Century Paintings, Day Sale wurde die Arbeit Gate Of The Alhambra für USD 277.200,00 (€ 279.041,68) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 120.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Childe Hassam erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Flags On 57Th Street, Winter 1918 im Mai 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 12.328.500,00 (€ 10.110.300,15).
