Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Lou Stoumen could be acquired at Christies in New York in September 2007 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Photographs auction, the work Times Square, New York, 1940 changed hands for USD 562.50 (€ 395.60) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lou Stoumen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Forty Years: Lou Stoumen in October 2010 with an auction result of USD 10,000.00 (€ 7,197.35).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Lou Stoumen konnte im September 2007 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Photographs wechselte die Arbeit Times Square, New York, 1940 für USD 562,50 (€ 395,60) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lou Stoumen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Forty Years: Lou Stoumen im Oktober 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 10.000,00 (€ 7.197,35).
