Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Cape Cod 2 by Harry Callahan was sold in the PhotographsSummer Cut auction at Bonhams in New York in August last year. The price achieved of USD 1,657.50 (€ 1,646.80) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,000.00 – 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Harry Callahan achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Trees And Mist (Chicago, Trees In Snow) in June 2010 with an auction result of USD 254,500.00 (€ 207,062.08).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Cape Cod 2 von Harry Callahan wurde im August letzten Jahres in der Auktion PhotographsSummer Cut bei Bonhams in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.657,50 (€ 1.646,80) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 1.000,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Harry Callahan erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Trees And Mist (Chicago, Trees In Snow) im Juni 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 254.500,00 (€ 207.062,08).
