Auction result well in line with expectations
The work First-Nighters' Intermission (McCulloch 44) by Don Freeman was auctioned at Christies in New York in October 2008. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 1,500.00 – 2,500.00, the actual price achieved of USD 1,750.00 (€ 1,379.91) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Don Freeman achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Dance Rehersal in November 2001 with an auction result of USD 14,100.00 (€ 15,740.12).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit First-Nighters' Intermission (McCulloch 44) von Don Freeman kam im Oktober 2008 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.500,00 – 2.500,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 1.750,00 (€ 1.379,91) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Don Freeman erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Dance Rehersal im November 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 14.100,00 (€ 15.740,12).
