Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Echo (Schmücking 345) by Johnny Friedlaender was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2007, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 800.00 – 1,200.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 500.00 (€ 351.64). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Johnny Friedlaender achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Composition VIII in April 2013 with an auction result of EUR 6,250.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Echo (Schmücking 345) von Johnny Friedlaender im September 2007 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 500,00 (€ 351,64) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Johnny Friedlaender erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Composition VIII im April 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 6.250,00.
