Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction An American Summer, which included the work Sunset by Frederick Carl Frieseke. The price achieved of USD 13,860.00 (€ 11,682.40) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frederick Carl Frieseke achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Garden in November 2016 with an auction result of USD 2,407,500.00 (€ 2,275,950.09).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2021 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion An American Summer durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sunset von Frederick Carl Frieseke zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 13.860,00 (€ 11.682,40) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frederick Carl Frieseke erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Garden im November 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.407.500,00 (€ 2.275.950,09).
