Auction result well in line with expectations
In February 2019 Bonhams in Los Angeles held the auction The L.D. "Brink" Brinkman Collection Online, which included the work Reining Horse Bookends by Mehl Lawson. The price achieved of USD 1,187.50 (€ 1,043.59) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mehl Lawson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Range Doctor, which sold at auction in January this year for USD 2,805.00 (€ 2,583.35).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Februar 2019 führte Bonhams in Los Angeles die Auktion The L.D. "Brink" Brinkman Collection Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Reining Horse Bookends von Mehl Lawson zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 1.187,50 (€ 1.043,59) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Mehl Lawson mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Range Doctor beobachtet, die im Januar diesen Jahres für USD 2.805,00 (€ 2.583,35) versteigert wurde.
