Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Lester F. Johnson could be acquired at Christies in New York in September 2015 for an unexpectedly low price. In the First Open auction, the work Worker changed hands for USD 2,500.00 (€ 2,239.74) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lester F. Johnson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work City #3 in September 2014 with an auction result of USD 34,375.00 (€ 27,221.25).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Lester F. Johnson konnte im September 2015 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion First Open wechselte die Arbeit Worker für USD 2.500,00 (€ 2.239,74) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lester F. Johnson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit City #3 im September 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 34.375,00 (€ 27.221,25).
