Sold at the lower estimate price
In December 2008 Sothebys in New York held the auction The Sporting Sale: Equestrian, Wildlife & Maritime Art, which included the work American Racing Silks Resting by Henry Koehler. The result of USD 10,000.00 (€ 7,184.42) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henry Koehler - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work American The 1973 Belmont Jockeys, which sold at auction in November 2007 for USD 40,000.00 (€ 27,233.12).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Dezember 2008 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion The Sporting Sale: Equestrian, Wildlife & Maritime Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit American Racing Silks Resting von Henry Koehler zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 10.000,00 (€ 7.184,42) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Henry Koehler mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit American The 1973 Belmont Jockeys beobachtet, die im November 2007 für USD 40.000,00 (€ 27.233,12) versteigert wurde.
