Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October this year Phillips in New York held the auction Editions & Works on Paper, which included the work Lake and Mountains by John Marin. The »bidding war« ended at USD 8,255.00 (€ 7,811.32), 18% above the upper estimate. 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 Oktober diesen Jahres führte Phillips in New York die Auktion Editions & Works on Paper durch, in der auch die Arbeit Lake and Mountains von John Marin zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 8.255,00 (€ 7.811,32) und damit 18% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. 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).
