Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Hiro could be acquired at Phillips in New York in October 2017 for an unexpectedly low price. In the The Odyssey of Collecting: Photographs from Joy of Giving Something Foundation auction, the work Akiko on the Black Lava of Hawaii changed hands for USD 3,000.00 (€ 2,575.55) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hiro achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Apollo - 11, 9:32 A. M. 7-16-69 Maiden Voyage To The Moon' in April last year with an auction result of USD 63,000.00 (€ 59,789.31).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Hiro konnte im Oktober 2017 bei Phillips in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion The Odyssey of Collecting: Photographs from Joy of Giving Something Foundation wechselte die Arbeit Akiko on the Black Lava of Hawaii für USD 3.000,00 (€ 2.575,55) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hiro erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Apollo - 11, 9:32 A. M. 7-16-69 Maiden Voyage To The Moon' im April letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 63.000,00 (€ 59.789,31).
