Hammer Galleries, New York | Private Collection, New York | Aquired as a gift from the above by the present owner

Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Joseph Francis Kernan achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in April 2014. In the American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture auction, the work Boss Of The Block sold for USD 18,750.00 (€ 13,518.39) - well above the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Joseph Francis Kernan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Bad Moment for a Tangled Line!, which sold at auction in September last year for USD 40,695.00 (€ 41,597.67).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Joseph Francis Kernan erzielte im April 2014 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion American Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture wurde die Arbeit Boss Of The Block für USD 18.750,00 (€ 13.518,39) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 7.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Joseph Francis Kernan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Bad Moment for a Tangled Line! beobachtet, die im September letzten Jahres für USD 40.695,00 (€ 41.597,67) versteigert wurde.
