Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Untitled (Plant Form) by Harry Bertoia was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in December 2021. The price achieved of USD 52,920.00 (€ 46,757.38) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Harry Bertoia achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Screen From One Marine Midland Center, Buffalo, New York in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 790,000.00 (€ 747,964.40).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Untitled (Plant Form) von Harry Bertoia kam im Dezember 2021 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 52.920,00 (€ 46.757,38) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Harry Bertoia erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Screen From One Marine Midland Center, Buffalo, New York im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 790.000,00 (€ 747.964,40).
