Auction result well in line with expectations
The work White Plant by Helen Torr was sold in the American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction at Sothebys in New York in April 2012. The price achieved of USD 11,875.00 (€ 8,976.49) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Helen Torr achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Imagined in May last year with an auction result of USD 239,400.00 (€ 223,091.98).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit White Plant von Helen Torr wurde im April 2012 in der Auktion American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 11.875,00 (€ 8.976,49) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Helen Torr erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Imagined im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 239.400,00 (€ 223.091,98).
