Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work 9th Avenue El at 66th Street and Columbus Avenue, New York by Hayley Lever was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in August last year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 765.00 (€ 760.06). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hayley Lever achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Nocturne, Marblehead, Massachusetts in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 150,000.00 (€ 142,018.56).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit 9th Avenue El at 66th Street and Columbus Avenue, New York von Hayley Lever im August letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 765,00 (€ 760,06) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hayley Lever erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Nocturne, Marblehead, Massachusetts im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 150.000,00 (€ 142.018,56).
