Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work A Busy Afternoon At The Market by Noel Harry Leaver was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in October 2020, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 3,276.00 (€ 2,812.74). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Noel Harry Leaver - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An ancient Arab city, which sold at auction in February 2000 for GBP 5,520.00 (€ 9,033.04).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit A Busy Afternoon At The Market von Noel Harry Leaver im Oktober 2020 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 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 3.276,00 (€ 2.812,74) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Noel Harry Leaver mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit An ancient Arab city beobachtet, die im Februar 2000 für GBP 5.520,00 (€ 9.033,04) versteigert wurde.
