Description
JOSEPH CORNELL (1903-1972) Christine Kaufman signed, titled and dated '1964-5 J K Cornell Christine Kaufman' (on the reverse) printed paper collage, stamps, marker, ink and graphite on Masonite 12 x 9 in. (30.5 x 22.9 cm.) Executed in 1964-1965.
Upper estimate price exceeded by 51 %.
In December last year Christies in New York held the auction First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art, which included the work Christine Kaufman by Joseph Cornell. The »bidding war« ended at USD 30,240.00 (€ 28,266.97), 51% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joseph Cornell achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Medici Slot Machine in May 2014 with an auction result of USD 7,781,000.00 (€ 5,704,545.45).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 51 % übertroffen
Im Dezember letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Christine Kaufman von Joseph Cornell zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 30.240,00 (€ 28.266,97) und damit 51% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joseph Cornell erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Medici Slot Machine im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.781.000,00 (€ 5.704.545,45).
