Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Untitled (Reclining Figure) by Joel Fisher was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in April 2008, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 4,063.00 (€ 2,609.84). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Joel Fisher - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled (Tree), which sold at auction in March 2005 for USD 7,200.00 (€ 5,551.70).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Untitled (Reclining Figure) von Joel Fisher im April 2008 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 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 4.063,00 (€ 2.609,84) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Joel Fisher mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Untitled (Tree) beobachtet, die im März 2005 für USD 7.200,00 (€ 5.551,70) versteigert wurde.
