Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by John Henry Twachtman could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in December 2013 for an unexpectedly low price. In the American Art auction, the work Tiger Lilies changed hands for USD 269,000.00 (€ 195,224.62) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 300,000.00 – 400,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Henry Twachtman - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Hemlocks, which sold at auction in May 2007 for USD 600,000.00 (€ 445,997.18).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Henry Twachtman konnte im Dezember 2013 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion American Art wechselte die Arbeit Tiger Lilies für USD 269.000,00 (€ 195.224,62) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 300.000,00 – 400.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von John Henry Twachtman mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Hemlocks beobachtet, die im Mai 2007 für USD 600.000,00 (€ 445.997,18) versteigert wurde.
