Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Alligator, Blue Sky by Eddie Arning was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in December 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 300.00 – 500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 250.00 (€ 222.68). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Eddie Arning achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tricia Got Her Rose Garden, It Was the Only Thing to Do After the Mule Died, and Untitled (Crow with Yellow Background), circa 1975-1970, three drawings in January 2019 with an auction result of USD 7,500.00 (€ 6,547.93).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Alligator, Blue Sky von Eddie Arning im Dezember 2019 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 250,00 (€ 222,68) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Eddie Arning erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tricia Got Her Rose Garden, It Was the Only Thing to Do After the Mule Died, and Untitled (Crow with Yellow Background), circa 1975-1970, three drawings im Januar 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.500,00 (€ 6.547,93).
