Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Birches, Winter Afternoon by John Whorf was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2018. The price achieved of USD 4,375.00 (€ 3,551.14) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Whorf achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work On The Dunes in March 2007 with an auction result of USD 51,000.00 (€ 38,133.69).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Birches, Winter Afternoon von John Whorf kam im März 2018 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 4.375,00 (€ 3.551,14) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Whorf erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit On The Dunes im März 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 51.000,00 (€ 38.133,69).
