Upper estimate price exceeded by 47 %.
The work Oronzio Maldarelli Cottage, Skowhegan by Rackstraw Downes was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March last year. It achieved a price of USD 44,100.00 (€ 39,754.80), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 47%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Rackstraw Downes - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Approach To The Holland Tunnel With 75 Varick, which sold at auction in November 2016 for USD 87,500.00 (€ 82,718.85).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 47 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Oronzio Maldarelli Cottage, Skowhegan von Rackstraw Downes kam im März letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 44.100,00 (€ 39.754,80) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 47%. Für andere Arbeiten von Rackstraw Downes mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Approach To The Holland Tunnel With 75 Varick beobachtet, die im November 2016 für USD 87.500,00 (€ 82.718,85) versteigert wurde.
