Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work After the Swim by Jean MacLane was auctioned at Bonhams in Paris in May this year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 5,120.00 (€ 4,805.71). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jean MacLane - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bathers, which sold at auction in November last year for USD 19,125.00 (€ 18,526.59).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit After the Swim von Jean MacLane im Mai diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in Paris versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 5.120,00 (€ 4.805,71) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Jean MacLane mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Bathers beobachtet, die im November letzten Jahres für USD 19.125,00 (€ 18.526,59) versteigert wurde.
