Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Early Spring by Mary Augusta Hiester Reid was auctioned at Sothebys in Toronto in November 2011, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of CAD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for CAD 4,800.00 (€ 3,498.05). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mary Augusta Hiester Reid - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Still Life With Copper Pot And Roses, which sold at auction in November 2011 for CAD 19,200.00 (€ 13,992.18).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Early Spring von Mary Augusta Hiester Reid im November 2011 bei Sothebys in Toronto versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von CAD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für CAD 4.800,00 (€ 3.498,05) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Mary Augusta Hiester Reid mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Still Life With Copper Pot And Roses beobachtet, die im November 2011 für CAD 19.200,00 (€ 13.992,18) versteigert wurde.
