A top price for James Brade Sword - as previously expected
The work Off the Rhode Island Coast by James Brade Sword was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 8,125.00 (€ 7,287.65) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Off the Rhode Island Coast is the most expensive artwork by James Brade Sword that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Off the Rhode Island Coast von James Brade Sword kam im Mai 2019 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 8.125,00 (€ 7.287,65) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Off the Rhode Island Coast das teuerste Kunstwerk von James Brade Sword, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
