Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Straw Flowers and Bittersweet by George Copeland Ault was auctioned at Christies in New York in November 2001. The price achieved of USD 28,200.00 (€ 31,480.24) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Copeland Ault achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Plough and the Moon in November 2021 with an auction result of USD 687,500.00 (€ 609,107.82).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Straw Flowers and Bittersweet von George Copeland Ault kam im November 2001 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 28.200,00 (€ 31.480,24) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Copeland Ault erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Plough and the Moon im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 687.500,00 (€ 609.107,82).
