Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Richard Wathen could be acquired at Phillips in New York in September 2017 for an unexpectedly low price. In the New Now auction, the work Ludo changed hands for USD 3,250.00 (€ 2,751.21) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Richard Wathen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Lower Kingdom in May 2012 with an auction result of USD 80,500.00 (€ 65,108.38).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Richard Wathen konnte im September 2017 bei Phillips in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion New Now wechselte die Arbeit Ludo für USD 3.250,00 (€ 2.751,21) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Richard Wathen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Lower Kingdom im Mai 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 80.500,00 (€ 65.108,38).
