Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Apollo Space Suit (After Beuys) by Matthew Day Jackson was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 56,700.00 (€ 46,498.28). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Matthew Day Jackson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Harriet (Last Portrait) in May 2010 with an auction result of USD 662,500.00 (€ 535,613.23).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Apollo Space Suit (After Beuys) von Matthew Day Jackson im Mai 2021 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 56.700,00 (€ 46.498,28) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Matthew Day Jackson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Harriet (Last Portrait) im Mai 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 662.500,00 (€ 535.613,23).
