Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Red Barn Union by Oscar Bluemner was sold in the American Art auction at Bonhams in Paris in May this year. The price achieved of USD 4,864.00 (€ 4,565.42) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Oscar Bluemner achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Illusion of a Prairie, New Jersey (Red Farm at Pochuck) in November 2011 with an auction result of USD 5,346,500.00 (€ 3,974,206.50).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Red Barn Union von Oscar Bluemner wurde im Mai diesen Jahres in der Auktion American Art bei Bonhams in Paris versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 4.864,00 (€ 4.565,42) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Oscar Bluemner erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Illusion of a Prairie, New Jersey (Red Farm at Pochuck) im November 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 5.346.500,00 (€ 3.974.206,50).
