Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2003 Christies in New York held the auction Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture, which included the work Study of Rainbow Falls, Watkins Glen by James Hope. 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 8,365.00 (€ 7,674.31) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by James Hope have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in March 2020 the work Cedar Swamp was auctioned for USD 15,000.00 (€ 13,600.51).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2003 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture durch, in der auch die Arbeit Study of Rainbow Falls, Watkins Glen von James Hope zur Versteigerung kam. 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 8.365,00 (€ 7.674,31) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Andere Arbeiten von James Hope konnten bereits höhere Auktionspreise erzielen, so wurde im März 2020 die Arbeit Cedar Swamp für USD 15.000,00 (€ 13.600,51) versteigert.
