Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
When the work Homesickness by Jared French was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in November 2012, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 20,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at USD 92,500.00 (€ 71,099.15). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jared French achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Double in May last year with an auction result of USD 1,071,000.00 (€ 998,043.05).
Kunstwerk zum Vierfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Homesickness von Jared French im November 2012 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 20.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 92.500,00 (€ 71.099,15) mehr als viermal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jared French erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Double im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.071.000,00 (€ 998.043,05).
