Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Cappa Da Opera (Opera Girl) by Morris Hirshfield was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in May 2014. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 150,000.00 – 250,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 173,000.00 (€ 126,832.84) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Morris Hirshfield - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Cats In The Snow, which sold at auction in November 2015 for USD 281,000.00 (€ 266,048.10).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Cappa Da Opera (Opera Girl) von Morris Hirshfield kam im Mai 2014 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 150.000,00 – 250.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 173.000,00 (€ 126.832,84) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Morris Hirshfield mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Cats In The Snow beobachtet, die im November 2015 für USD 281.000,00 (€ 266.048,10) versteigert wurde.
