Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Zuni Women Grinding Corn by Henry Cornelius Balink was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 6,875.00 (€ 6,304.45). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henry Cornelius Balink - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Brascillio Herrera, which sold at auction in November 2004 for USD 26,290.00 (€ 19,828.04).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Zuni Women Grinding Corn von Henry Cornelius Balink im September 2019 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 6.875,00 (€ 6.304,45) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Henry Cornelius Balink mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Brascillio Herrera beobachtet, die im November 2004 für USD 26.290,00 (€ 19.828,04) versteigert wurde.
