Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Autumn Scene, Children Coming Home from School by Richard Schmid was auctioned at Bonhams in Los Angeles in November last year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 8,925.00 (€ 8,645.74). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Richard Schmid - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sangre De Christo Mountains, Taos, New Mexico, which sold at auction in November 2004 for USD 23,900.00 (€ 18,025.49).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Autumn Scene, Children Coming Home from School von Richard Schmid im November letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in Los Angeles versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 8.925,00 (€ 8.645,74) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Richard Schmid mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Sangre De Christo Mountains, Taos, New Mexico beobachtet, die im November 2004 für USD 23.900,00 (€ 18.025,49) versteigert wurde.
