Auction result well in line with expectations
The work In the Mountains of Mexico by Josef Herman was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 4,375.00 (€ 5,137.32) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Josef Herman have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Irish Scene in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 24,000.00 (€ 35,614.79).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit In the Mountains of Mexico von Josef Herman kam im November 2019 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 4.375,00 (€ 5.137,32) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Josef Herman auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Irish Scene im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 24.000,00 (€ 35.614,79).
