Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In September 2020 Sothebys in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work Garden Before The City by Joseph Floch. Here, the upper estimate of USD 15,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 15,120.00 (€ 12,903.23). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Joseph Floch - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Frau im roten Kleid, which sold at auction in July 2021 for EUR 50,000.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im September 2020 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Garden Before The City von Joseph Floch zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 15.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 15.120,00 (€ 12.903,23) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Joseph Floch mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Frau im roten Kleid beobachtet, die im Juli 2021 für EUR 50.000,00 versteigert wurde.
