Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Woman Seated Lf 24 by Gaston Lachaise was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2019. It changed hands for a price of USD 75,000.00 (€ 67,270.61) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gaston Lachaise achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Standing Woman [LF 92|AID104142] in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 3,732,500.00 (€ 3,296,387.88).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Woman Seated Lf 24 von Gaston Lachaise kam im Mai 2019 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 75.000,00 (€ 67.270,61) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gaston Lachaise erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Standing Woman [LF 92|AID104142] im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.732.500,00 (€ 3.296.387,88).
