Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Curated, which included the work Male and Female Models with Balloon, Chair and Old African Drum by Philip Pearlstein. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 50,000.00 – 70,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 50,400.00 (€ 42,919.19) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Philip Pearlstein - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Model With Empire State Building, which sold at auction in November 2010 for USD 170,500.00 (€ 130,791.65).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2021 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Curated durch, in der auch die Arbeit Male and Female Models with Balloon, Chair and Old African Drum von Philip Pearlstein zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 50.000,00 – 70.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 50.400,00 (€ 42.919,19) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Philip Pearlstein mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Model With Empire State Building beobachtet, die im November 2010 für USD 170.500,00 (€ 130.791,65) versteigert wurde.
