Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Cervantes' Inn, Seville by Harry Leslie Hoffman was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in May 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 1,500.00 – 2,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 1,275.00 (€ 1,045.60). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Harry Leslie Hoffman achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Cotton Gin in October 2016 with an auction result of USD 56,250.00 (€ 51,313.63).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Cervantes' Inn, Seville von Harry Leslie Hoffman im Mai 2021 bei Bonhams in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.500,00 – 2.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 1.275,00 (€ 1.045,60) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Harry Leslie Hoffman erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Cotton Gin im Oktober 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 56.250,00 (€ 51.313,63).
