Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Stork's Nest by George Hitchcock was sold in the Important American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture auction at Christies in New York in May 2012. The price achieved of USD 37,500.00 (€ 30,329.99) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Hitchcock achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tulip Culture in May 2010 with an auction result of USD 1,762,500.00 (€ 1,424,933.30).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Stork's Nest von George Hitchcock wurde im Mai 2012 in der Auktion Important American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 37.500,00 (€ 30.329,99) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Hitchcock erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tulip Culture im Mai 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.762.500,00 (€ 1.424.933,30).
