This artwork by Grant Wood achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Los Angeles in June this year. In the Prints & Multiples auction, the work July Fifteenth sold for USD 8,960.00 (€ 8,205.13) - well above the upper estimate of USD 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Grant Wood achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Study for "February" in December 2008 with an auction result of USD 1,058,500.00 (€ 760,471.30).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 79 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Grant Wood erzielte im Juni diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in Los Angeles einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Prints & Multiples wurde die Arbeit July Fifteenth für USD 8.960,00 (€ 8.205,13) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Grant Wood erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Study for "February" im Dezember 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.058.500,00 (€ 760.471,30).
