Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Mosaic for Apartment House, Sketch No. 12 by Hans Hofmann was sold in the Post-War & Contemporary Art auction at Bonhams in May this year. The price achieved of USD 25,500.00 (€ 23,934.67) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hans Hofmann achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Leise Zieht Durch Mein Gemüt Liebliches Geläute (Mellow Sound Of Bells Rings Gently Through My Mind) in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 8,597,150.00 (€ 7,592,643.29).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Mosaic for Apartment House, Sketch No. 12 von Hans Hofmann wurde im Mai diesen Jahres in der Auktion Post-War & Contemporary Art bei Bonhams versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 25.500,00 (€ 23.934,67) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hans Hofmann erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Leise Zieht Durch Mein Gemüt Liebliches Geläute (Mellow Sound Of Bells Rings Gently Through My Mind) im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 8.597.150,00 (€ 7.592.643,29).
