Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Peanuts–Fresh Roasted, Well Toasted by John Frederick Peto was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2016. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 43,750.00 (€ 39,290.53) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Frederick Peto achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Old Time Letter Rack in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 850,000.00 (€ 773,148.99).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Peanuts–Fresh Roasted, Well Toasted von John Frederick Peto kam im Mai 2016 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 43.750,00 (€ 39.290,53) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Frederick Peto erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Old Time Letter Rack im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 850.000,00 (€ 773.148,99).
