A top price for Louis Lang - as previously expected
In November 2011 Christies in New York held the auction Important American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture, which included the work Reminiscences of Lake Mahopac--Ladies Preparing for a Boat Race by Louis Lang. The result of USD 30,000.00 (€ 22,299.86) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Reminiscences of Lake Mahopac--Ladies Preparing for a Boat Race is the most expensive artwork by Louis Lang that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im November 2011 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Important American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture durch, in der auch die Arbeit Reminiscences of Lake Mahopac--Ladies Preparing for a Boat Race von Louis Lang zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 30.000,00 (€ 22.299,86) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Reminiscences of Lake Mahopac--Ladies Preparing for a Boat Race das teuerste Kunstwerk von Louis Lang, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
