A top price for Henry Bacon - as previously expected

In May 2011 Sothebys in New York held the auction American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture, which included the work Land! And Goodbye: A Pair Of Paintings by Henry Bacon. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 43,750.00 (€ 30,432.67) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Land! And Goodbye: A Pair Of Paintings is the most expensive artwork by Henry Bacon that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Im Mai 2011 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture durch, in der auch die Arbeit Land! And Goodbye: A Pair Of Paintings von Henry Bacon zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 43.750,00 (€ 30.432,67) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Land! And Goodbye: A Pair Of Paintings das teuerste Kunstwerk von Henry Bacon, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
