Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Head of State II by Patricia Coffie was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2017, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 800.00 – 1,200.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 625.00 (€ 529.08). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Patricia Coffie achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Far From Home in September 2017 with an auction result of USD 9,375.00 (€ 7,936.17).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Head of State II von Patricia Coffie im September 2017 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 625,00 (€ 529,08) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Patricia Coffie erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Far From Home im September 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 9.375,00 (€ 7.936,17).
