Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2001 Christies in Los Angeles held the auction CALIFORNIA, WESTERN AND AMERICAN PAINTINGS, which included the work Cool Waters by Fremont F. Ellis. The price achieved of USD 28,200.00 (€ 33,353.05) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Fremont F. Ellis - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Indian Summer - Santa Fe, New Mexico, which sold at auction in November 2004 for USD 95,600.00 (€ 72,101.97).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2001 führte Christies in Los Angeles die Auktion CALIFORNIA, WESTERN AND AMERICAN PAINTINGS durch, in der auch die Arbeit Cool Waters von Fremont F. Ellis zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 28.200,00 (€ 33.353,05) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Fremont F. Ellis mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Indian Summer - Santa Fe, New Mexico beobachtet, die im November 2004 für USD 95.600,00 (€ 72.101,97) versteigert wurde.
