Upper estimate price exceeded by 47 %.
In August this year Christies in Sydney held the auction Tales of the City: New York Prints and Photographs of the Early 20th Century, which included the work Merry Go-Round by Reginald Marsh. The »bidding war« ended at USD 1,764.00 (€ 1,627.46), 47% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Reginald Marsh achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Merry-Go-Round in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 790,000.00 (€ 747,964.40).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 47 % übertroffen
Im August diesen Jahres führte Christies in Sydney die Auktion Tales of the City: New York Prints and Photographs of the Early 20th Century durch, in der auch die Arbeit Merry Go-Round von Reginald Marsh zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 1.764,00 (€ 1.627,46) und damit 47% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Reginald Marsh erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Merry-Go-Round im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 790.000,00 (€ 747.964,40).
