Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Drifter by James Hopkins was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 1,125.00 (€ 1,001.96). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James Hopkins achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Blue Thunder in March 2019 with an auction result of GBP 32,500.00 (€ 37,721.77).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Drifter von James Hopkins im März 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 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 1.125,00 (€ 1.001,96) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James Hopkins erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Blue Thunder im März 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 32.500,00 (€ 37.721,77).
