A top price for Paul Weber - as previously expected
The work In the Catskills by Paul Weber was sold in the Important American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture auction at Christies in New York in May 2000. The price achieved of USD 70,500.00 (€ 75,578.90) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, In the Catskills is the most expensive artwork by Paul Weber that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit In the Catskills von Paul Weber wurde im Mai 2000 in der Auktion Important American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 70.500,00 (€ 75.578,90) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist In the Catskills das teuerste Kunstwerk von Paul Weber, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
