Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In June 2000 Christies in New York held the auction American Paintings, which included the work Brooklyn Bridge Series, Figure Leaning on Railing by John Marin. Here, the upper estimate of USD 18,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 19,975.00 (€ 20,927.19). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Marin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Lobster Boat, Cape Split, Maine in April this year with an auction result of USD 1,925,500.00 (€ 1,744,112.32).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Juni 2000 führte Christies in New York die Auktion American Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Brooklyn Bridge Series, Figure Leaning on Railing von John Marin zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 18.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 19.975,00 (€ 20.927,19) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Marin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Lobster Boat, Cape Split, Maine im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.925.500,00 (€ 1.744.112,32).
