Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Meeting Of The Two Tribes by Nick Eggenhofer was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2010, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 7,500.00 (€ 5,544.88). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Nick Eggenhofer - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work When Buffalo Were Plentiful, which sold at auction in March 2010 for USD 20,000.00 (€ 14,786.34).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Meeting Of The Two Tribes von Nick Eggenhofer im März 2010 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 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 7.500,00 (€ 5.544,88) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Nick Eggenhofer mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit When Buffalo Were Plentiful beobachtet, die im März 2010 für USD 20.000,00 (€ 14.786,34) versteigert wurde.
