Auction result well in line with expectations
The work American burning Brush by Daniel Ridgway Knight was auctioned 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 150,000.00 – 200,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 162,500.00 (€ 153,853.44) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Daniel Ridgway Knight - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Coming from the Garden, which sold at auction in November 2000 for USD 402,000.00 (€ 462,387.85).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit American burning Brush von Daniel Ridgway Knight kam im November 2015 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 150.000,00 – 200.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 162.500,00 (€ 153.853,44) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Daniel Ridgway Knight mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Coming from the Garden beobachtet, die im November 2000 für USD 402.000,00 (€ 462.387,85) versteigert wurde.
