Auction result misses estimated price range
In November 2012 a collector was able to acquire the work Inside Out Styrofoam Cup by Frank Benson for USD 4,688.00 (€ 3,603.38). This price was achieved in the auction Contemporary Art Day Auction at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frank Benson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Wooster Farm in May 2007 with an auction result of USD 1,272,000.00 (€ 945,514.01).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November 2012 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Inside Out Styrofoam Cup von Frank Benson für USD 4.688,00 (€ 3.603,38) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frank Benson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Wooster Farm im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.272.000,00 (€ 945.514,01).
