Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Mystery of the Anasazi by Edward Fraughton was auctioned at Bonhams in Los Angeles in December 2021. 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 1,530.00 (€ 1,351.83) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Edward Fraughton have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Last Arrow in February 2019 with an auction result of USD 8,125.00 (€ 7,140.35).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Mystery of the Anasazi von Edward Fraughton kam im Dezember 2021 bei Bonhams in Los Angeles 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 1.530,00 (€ 1.351,83) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Edward Fraughton auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Last Arrow im Februar 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 8.125,00 (€ 7.140,35).
