This artwork by John Beasley Greene achieved an unexpectedly high price at Phillips in New York in October 2017. In the The Odyssey of Collecting: Photographs from Joy of Giving Something Foundation auction, the work Untitled (Boats on the Nile) sold for USD 47,500.00 (€ 40,779.53) - well above the upper estimate of USD 25,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Beasley Greene achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Album Of Egypt And Algeria, 1852 - 1856 in May 2014 with an auction result of GBP 482,500.00 (€ 593,008.06).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 90 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Beasley Greene erzielte im Oktober 2017 bei Phillips in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The Odyssey of Collecting: Photographs from Joy of Giving Something Foundation wurde die Arbeit Untitled (Boats on the Nile) für USD 47.500,00 (€ 40.779,53) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 25.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Beasley Greene erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Album Of Egypt And Algeria, 1852 - 1856 im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 482.500,00 (€ 593.008,06).
