Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Selected images from the series, From the Window, 1994 by Merry Alpern was sold in the Photographs auction at Christies in New York in December 2010. The price achieved of USD 4,750.00 (€ 3,579.77) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Merry Alpern - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled, de la série Dirty Window, 1994, which sold at auction in November 2017 for EUR 11,250.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Selected images from the series, From the Window, 1994 von Merry Alpern wurde im Dezember 2010 in der Auktion Photographs bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 4.750,00 (€ 3.579,77) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Merry Alpern mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Untitled, de la série Dirty Window, 1994 beobachtet, die im November 2017 für EUR 11.250,00 versteigert wurde.
