Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Boy on TV, from Eviction Struggle (V. 28b, P. 22) by Jeff Wall was auctioned at Phillips in New York in October this year. The price achieved of USD 1,905.00 (€ 1,802.61) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,500.00 – 2,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jeff Wall achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Dead Troops Talk (A vision after an ambush of a Red Army patrol, near Moqor, Afghanistan, winter 1986) in May 2012 with an auction result of USD 3,666,500.00 (€ 2,965,464.25).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
