Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Selected Images of the Brown Sisters by Nicholas Nixon was auctioned at Phillips in New York in October 2017. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 17,500.00 (€ 15,024.04) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nicholas Nixon achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Brown Sisters in April 2015 with an auction result of USD 370,000.00 (€ 331,481.81).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Selected Images of the Brown Sisters von Nicholas Nixon kam im Oktober 2017 bei Phillips in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 17.500,00 (€ 15.024,04) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Nicholas Nixon erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Brown Sisters im April 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 370.000,00 (€ 331.481,81).
