Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Desert Pine by Marguerite Thompson Zorach was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2015, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 18,750.00 (€ 16,798.06). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Marguerite Thompson Zorach achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Zorach Family in a Landscape and Floral Still Life: A Double-Sided Painting in May last year with an auction result of USD 214,200.00 (€ 199,608.61).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Desert Pine von Marguerite Thompson Zorach im September 2015 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 18.750,00 (€ 16.798,06) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Marguerite Thompson Zorach erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Zorach Family in a Landscape and Floral Still Life: A Double-Sided Painting im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 214.200,00 (€ 199.608,61).
