Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2015 Sothebys in New York held the auction Photographs, which included the work Portrait Of Laura by George H. Seeley. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 7,000.00 – 10,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 7,500.00 (€ 6,792.25) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George H. Seeley - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscape With Two Figures, which sold at auction in October 2008 for USD 17,500.00 (€ 13,799.09).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2015 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Photographs durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of Laura von George H. Seeley zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 7.500,00 (€ 6.792,25) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von George H. Seeley mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Landscape With Two Figures beobachtet, die im Oktober 2008 für USD 17.500,00 (€ 13.799,09) versteigert wurde.
