Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work The Red Swing Set (Brantôme) by Clark Hulings was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2020, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 56,250.00 (€ 48,295.70). Other works by Clark Hulings have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in May 2008 by the work Wash Day In The Pyrenees at USD 133,000.00 (€ 85,475.58).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit The Red Swing Set (Brantôme) von Clark Hulings im Oktober 2020 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 56.250,00 (€ 48.295,70) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Clark Hulings wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im Mai 2008 die Arbeit Wash Day In The Pyrenees mit USD 133.000,00 (€ 85.475,58).
