Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Chinatown, San Francisco by Louis Comfort Tiffany was sold in the Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction at Christies in New York in September 2010. The price achieved of USD 12,500.00 (€ 9,190.50) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Louis Comfort Tiffany achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Florida in March 2005 with an auction result of USD 156,000.00 (€ 120,286.84).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Chinatown, San Francisco von Louis Comfort Tiffany wurde im September 2010 in der Auktion Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 12.500,00 (€ 9.190,50) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Louis Comfort Tiffany erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Florida im März 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 156.000,00 (€ 120.286,84).
