Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Otis Kaye could be acquired at Christies in New York in March 2010 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction, the work The Boys are Okay changed hands for USD 6,250.00 (€ 4,620.73) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Otis Kaye achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Easy Come, Easy Go in May 2015 with an auction result of USD 514,000.00 (€ 467,527.74).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Otis Kaye konnte im März 2010 bei Christies in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture wechselte die Arbeit The Boys are Okay für USD 6.250,00 (€ 4.620,73) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Otis Kaye erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Easy Come, Easy Go im Mai 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 514.000,00 (€ 467.527,74).
