Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Ark by Jay Milder was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 800.00 – 1,200.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 375.00 (€ 307.53). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jay Milder - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Writing, which sold at auction in February 2015 for USD 1,250.00 (€ 1,116.37).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Ark von Jay Milder im Mai 2021 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 375,00 (€ 307,53) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Jay Milder mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Writing beobachtet, die im Februar 2015 für USD 1.250,00 (€ 1.116,37) versteigert wurde.
