Auction result misses estimated price range
In May last year a collector was able to acquire the work Horned Chief by John Ford Clymer for USD 4,410.00 (€ 4,109.59). This price was achieved in the auction The American Scene including Important Photographs from the Helene Wurlitzer Foundation at Sothebys in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 7,000.00 – 10,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Ford Clymer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Attack in December 2020 with an auction result of USD 879,100.00 (€ 718,806.21).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Mai letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Horned Chief von John Ford Clymer für USD 4.410,00 (€ 4.109,59) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion The American Scene including Important Photographs from the Helene Wurlitzer Foundation bei Sothebys in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 7.000,00 – 10.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Ford Clymer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Attack im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 879.100,00 (€ 718.806,21).
